On the palate, lemon curd brings a smooth, creamy richness, while mineral notes and fresh acidity provide balance and energy.\n\nThe finish is clean, supple and refreshing, making the wine approachable in its youth. It is best enjoyed while its vibrant fruit and lively freshness are at the forefront, though careful short-term cellaring may allow the texture to soften and develop further.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMade from Chardonnay grown in Washington State, Eve is vinified to preserve both its creamy mouthfeel and refreshing character.
