Over the years, the Brand brothers have quietly experimented more and more with zero-zero winemaking, as in this Electric Chardonnay Acid Test, a totally unexpected combo of 90% Chardonnay planted on the classic limestone soils of the region, and 10% Riesling for an extra jolt of acidity. Forget what you think you know about Chardonnay, this tastes nothing like the buttery, round, rich mommy juice you've had before. It's rocky, minerally and lean, but not mean - there is a suppleness to the golden apple and pear fruit that makes it extremely interesting and food-friendly.
