Brewer-Clifton
Hapgood Sta. Rita Hills Chardonnay
Sta. Rita Hills, Central Coast, California, USA
From the Mount Eden vineyard, bright golden color with aromas of exotic fruits with hints of floral notes. On the palate, the wine shows sweet buttery fruits, floral with gentle acidity. The wine tastes like a little Semillon was added, but it's 100% whole cluster Chardonnay aged in neutral oak. The finish is long and perfumed. Well crafted but not a favorite style. Tasting Sample.

Dec 1st, 2016Very well balanced between fruit oak and butter. Nose of ripe poached pear moved into apple pie on the palate. Finish goes to warm spicy notes, almost creamy coffee. Very nice.
