This is my go to Chardonnay! Easy drinking and well balanced. Great minerality.

Acid, apples, salinity, cream and enough mouthfeel/texture to bring it home. Well done and the closest you can get to a Pernot Burgogne Blanc in Cali.

Expressive fruit with gala and granny smith apples, ripe pear, fresh soft herbs, with a hint of bloomy cheese. Will love to re-visit after some cellaring also!
