La Crema
Sonoma Coast Chardonnay
Brought by a guest to lunch last Sunday who adores this wine. I have always found it over oaked and very ripe fruit but this was a much better showing. Still a big barrel ferment character and stone fruit notes but not ultra ripe. M minus acid and not for long keeping but a crowd pleaser right now. Great QPR.
