Sonoma Mountain Chardonnay
I see what the big deal about 2013 is. Sea salt, green apple, flint and toasty oak.

2 people found it helpfulApr 9th, 2015Lovely nose of elderflower, citrus fruits, butter, spices and brioche. As wifey commented "just like a damp spring morning." The palette is wonderful and high pitched. Lovely acidity with butterscotch, pears and limes. Finishes deftly sweet with very subtle oak treatment.

Oct 30th, 2016Outstanding. Multi-tiered nose of butterscotch, brioche and almonds.
On the palette, the wine is plush and round. Beautiful weight and density carry notes of cotton candy, pineapple and honeysuckle to the mid palette. Finishes harmoniously, with the perfect amount of sweetness. Structure is soft and acid is integrated. Don't leave this too long as it's not constructed for cellaring.

Dec 25th, 2015A little too buttery for my taste, and I just want it to be creamy and integrated. Bright acid

Apr 18th, 2015Started off quite tight, but opened up beautifully with a light decanting. Lots of tropical fruits on the nose and palette with a great acidity and slightly minerality.
