After warming, the juice in one tank was inoculated with a Burgundy yeast strain, then moved to barrels to complete yeast and malolactic fermentation. The juice in the other tank was allowed to warm and begin indigenous wild yeast fermentation, and was then moved to barrels to complete wild yeast and malolactic fermentation.<br><br> <span style="font-weight: bold; color: #1E347C;">Aging Notes:</span><br> The wines were separately barrel aged sur lies, with frequent batonnage, for a period of 14-16 months. The barrel selection was comprised of 40% new French oak, and 40% one-year old French oak and 20% two-year old American oak. After this extended barrel aging on the lees to enhance color, complexity, texture and flavor, the finest lots were meticulously selected, blended, and then bottled 100% unfiltered. <br><br> <span style="font-weight: bold; color: #1E347C;">Tasting Notes:</span><br> This delicious, focused Chardonnay reflects both its traditional Burgundian vinification, and Carneros single vineyard terroir. Meticulous, hand-crafted small-lot production has produced a rich, complex chardonnay with beautiful balance and sensational flavors. On the nose the wine exhibits an array of fragrant floral and tropical fruit aromas. On the palate the wine displays ample acidity, with creamy meyer lemon, honeydew, pineapple, and vanilla notes, followed by mineral, caramel and butterscotch notes on the seamless finish. <bR><Br> This sumptuous golden blonde chardonnay is drinking beautifully now in its youth, and will continue to evolve and mature throughout the course of this decade.<br><br> <span style="font-weight: bold; color: #1E347C;">Technical Notes: </span><br> <table style= border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td> Vintage:</td> <td> 2004</td> </tr> <tr> <td> Appellation: </td> <td> Carneros</td> </tr> <tr> <td> Vineyard:</td> <td> Sangiacomo Vineyard, Home Ranch </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Case Production: </td> <td>363</td> </tr> <tr> <td> Bottling Date:</td> <td> March 20, 2006</td> </tr> <tr> <td> Release Date: </td> <td> June 2006 </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Harvest Date: </td> <td> September 7, 2004</td> </tr> <tr> <td> Brix: </td> <td> 24.5 degrees </td> </tr> <tr> <td> pH: </td> <td> 3.5</td> </tr> <tr> <td> TA:</td> <td> 6.0 g/l </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Alcohol: </td> <td> 14.6%</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div> <br> <a href="http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/?category=134" style="text-decoration: none; color: #a60000; font-weight: bold;" target=_top> Return to Peters Family Wine List</a></P> <P><B>Other products in the winery <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Category134" TITLE="Peters Family Winery">Peters Family Winery</A>:</B> <BR clear=left><BR><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Product615 TITLE="Peters Family 2003 Chardonnay, Sangiacomo Vineyard"><IMG SRC="https://store.nexternal.com/flatiron/images/peters-family-chard-03[th].jpg" ALIGN=left ALT="Peters Family 2003 Chardonnay, Sangiacomo Vineyard" NAME="Peters Family 2003 Chardonnay, Sangiacomo Vineyard" BORDER=0 HSPACE=10></A> <A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Product615 TITLE="Peters Family 2003 Chardonnay, Sangiacomo Vineyard">Peters Family 2003 Chardonnay, Sangiacomo Vineyard</A> -- <a href="http://wine.appellationamerica.com/wine-region/Carneros-~-Los-Carneros.html" target=_new>Carneros -
