description: Based on a blend from the era of Charlemagne, Jim Clendenen's annual combination of 50% Pinot Gris, 40% Pinot Blanc and 10% Aligoté aged in all new oak shows intriguing smoked stone fruit, sea salt, buttered toast with orange marmalade and a touch of crème brûlée on the delicious nose. The palate offers burnt lemon peels, Marcona almond paste and a touch of buttercream.
