More of a restrained #california #chardonnay that remains enjoyable despite the buttery and oak style. The moderate acidity certainly helps.

Really enjoyed the 2021 vintage on May 10’ 2023. Yes, buttery and oakey flavors. Would recommend!

One of the smoothest Chards, nay, one of the smoothest white wines I’ve had. Very well rounded and delightful to drink.
