Really great Chardonnay from Virginia. Unoaked, but great texture, perfect balance, interesting lemon oil and almond flavors, the producer also farms oysters, and successfully crafted a great oyster wine

This was a local wine that we tried when on the Eastern shore. I didn't like the steel version and prefer the wooded.

Another consistently delicious year. Crisp and clean with hint of mineral. Perfect wine to compliment fish and the salinity of the local oysters.
