Santa Maria Valley, Central Coast, California, USA
Deadset delicious. Oak stood out initially but it settled into the wine with some air to make way to lemon curd, preserved lemon, yellow peach, dried pineapple, salted butter, lees and oak. Lovely sense of minerality and freshness in the palate. Decent length. Banging

He's the master for a reason. This captures everything great about Santa Maria Chardonnay. There is a bright acidic spine but also creaminess; one would not call this "lean". There is a perception of wet stone minerality, an electricity. There are citrus zests and nut shells. A complete package, and a masterful evocation of place.

Meyer lemon and deliciousness with minimal oak. Dare I say the best chard California has to offer?

If you can get past the label that looks like a PowerPoint slide, the wine inside will transport you to Bourgogne.
