Straw gold in color. Butterscotch and pineapple on the nose; echoed on the rich palate. Decidedly in the California buttery style, though not as intense from a balloon glass as from a narrow coupe. Acidity is medium minus, but good for rich "white wine" foods. A cream sauce poultry dish would be ideal. Hint of spice on the lengthy finish. Drink now.

An incredible Chardonnay!! Can't express how amazing this wine is! Nice and buttery with tropical flavors of pineapple and mango and a hint of butterscotch.

Chards aren't CstM's strong suit, but this was enjoyable.

Interesting honey and mineral on the tongue. Oak and fruit on the nose. Enough acid to stand up to dishes with cheese, like au gratin potatoes. Good with fish probably better with chicken.
