Carneros, North Coast, California, USA
Bright, pale straw gold. Subtle nose of golden apple dumpling. Full-bodied palate of golden apple, light vanilla, and brioche with medium minus acidity. Very nice iteration of the California Chardonnay style. Lush with tempered oak and next to no butter, it’s most at home with richer “white wine” foods. Cream sauces, lobster, or vegetable casseroles would pair nicely. Drink now.

Nice Chardonnay. Full bodied. Plenty of oak. Lees aged, but no malo. Would have liked a bit more acidity, but still really tasty. Clos Pegase wine.

Love the depth of flavor in this wine. A white that actually got better with air.

This is a delicate and elegant Chardonnay typical of Carneros. Lightly buttery, soft acidity, restrained fruitiness. It was delightful with fresh caught Florida pompano.

This was a fantastic Chardonnay. I'm not usually a big fan of Chardonnays, but I tasted this at a wine tasting & bought a bottle. I've been wishing I had more since I finished it. Fantastic!
