Singing. Butterscotch candy and sourdough crust nose. Steely. A little sweetness balanced by great acidity. Oaky vanilla flavors. Sublime chardonnay with an unbelievably long finish.

I don’t drink much Chardonnay. This was a very pleasant one. High acidity, citrus peel on the nose and great structure. Some evidence of new oak, but nothing over the top.
