He who hesitates just might make a smoother wine – that might be the new motto over at Casa Dea, especially after getting the story behind this 5 year old Chardonnay. Only 6 months of 80% new oak and now 3 years in bottle has made it round and smooth and supple. Pure stone fruit with a nice creamy texture along with baked apple and spice – the time to drink is now – so is the time to buy, cause once world leaks out this one is gonna fly.
