This wine serves as a sort of bridge between old-style and modern Chardonnay. It has an oaky presence, but not one that's off-putting. You'll get a whiff of it on the nose, but it's the tropical fruit you'll remember. The mouth is quite full and juicy, with a nice acidity and a medium finish. I paired it with a gumbo and was quite pleased.
