The 2014 'Récolté Grand Cru' Chardonnay is a truly epic wine in this vintage from Domaine Serene. As this slowly begins to unwind it releases alluring aromatics reminiscent of Meyer lemon zest, kumquat, crème brûlée and nutmeg. The mouthfeel of this wine is exotic and unctuous, showing tremendous weight as it yields flavors of marzipan, vanilla, crème brûlée, Pazzaz apple and nutmeg, which sit alongside lovely minerality. Stunning and profound, this is a completly compelling Chardonnay by Domaine Serene, and while this will cellar marvelously for many years to come, it is just about impossible to resist at this stage in its development.
