Chardonnay Reserve 2015

Our 2015 Reserve Chardonnay comes from three different vineyards: two from the High Plains and one Hill Country AVA. Harvested from vines spanning 6 to 35 years old, we can boast this is from the oldest Chardonnay vines still in existence in the state of Texas. Fermentation and aging is selected to highlight each vineyard's characteristics.
Current New World Chardonnays are often buttery or oaky; our approach with these wines maintains the classic, Old World style, complete with large aroma profiles, subtle, elegant fruit and a full, soft mouthfeel.

My daughter, who lives in Denver, came home (Troy, Tx) and took us (her Mom and Dad) out to dinner for our 50th Wedding Anniversary. I suggested your Chardonnay for the dinner and my Daughter loved it. She was unable to locate in Denver so we sent her 6 botls. for her to enjoy there and remember the Good Times! Thank You, Terry & Vicki Davis

Outstanding Chard. The best I have tasted in many years. Our son, who lives in Round Rock, TX sent us three bottles for Christmas. He does this every Christmas and I always look forward to my shipment of Becker Wines every December.
