Santa Maria Valley, Central Coast, California, USA
Overall, this presents clean and laser-focused. Minerality such as rocks and stones frame what is a textbook Montrachet clone. Citrus fruits are front and center in this example - a super effort from Cali.
Thanks again to @Paul T- Huntington Beach for a great reco!

Citrus, minerals, crushed stone on the nose. Lots of lemon. Great texture. Minerals. Racy acidity. Long, salty finish

The cork right after opening smelled like honey, green apples, and pineapple. The nose smelled of yeast and fermented pineapple immediately after opening, but now with some time more honey and less yeast with an almost marzipan-esque smell. The palate transfers through from the cork with riper pineapple, honey and a sweeter apple. The finish is a bit of dried apricot. Acidity rushes down the sides of the tongue. This is nice with my panko crusted chicken and roasted carrots.

Nice 2017 @Ron R
A refreshing Chardonnay, pop & pour, not complex nor overly sweet.
Jeb 94, can’t disagree

Nice round clean Chardonnay. Notes of Meyer Lemon, Citrus, Honeysuckle and just a touch of Vanilla. There is some Malolactic Fermentation going on, but definitely not as much as a lot of other California Chardonnay’s.
