Chardonnay, not Pinot...
Loads of butterscotch. Tropical fruit, citrus, slight minerality. Definite notes of new oak.

Bold but very balanced. Great paired with a late dinner of ribeye and avocado. Lightly herbal with a nice touch of cherry.

Concentrated Pinot flavors, yet balanced in acidity and tannins. Pronounced herbal and spicy notes, wouldn't want any more oak.
