Gloria Ferrer 2011 Carneros Chardonnay. 100% Carneros estate fruit. Aged in 100% French oak for 9 months. 50% malolactic fermentation. Buttery, vanilla cream custard aroma. Palate is rich, medium full, with yellow apple, toasted coconut, and a soft warming bakingnsoocenoj the finish. The oak is well integrated, not overwhelming. Giving the wine a little air, it's more focused on baked apple with a very soft baked spice and a drizzle of vanilla on top. Wonderful with Camembert cheese.
