Walter Hansel Cuvee Alyce Chardonnay 2022 750 ML

Introduction

Named after his Stephen Hansels mom, the Walter Hansel 2022 Chardonnay Cuvee Alyce is the top of the range for the Chardonnays and comes from the highest elevation site on the ranch. Made from the clones Hyde Wente, Huxon Wente, and Dijon 95, in the glass it displays a ripe golden yellow hue and is more focused, with ripe notes of flint, baked golden apples, lemon curd, toasted cedar, and wet stones. Full-bodied, it offers a creamy, luxuriously rounded texture, with a clean finish and a touch of hazelnut through the palate. It is another opulent wine that is going to drink at its best over the next 6-8 years. 742 cases produced.
