Butter, citrus, slight oak. Nice balance. Pairs great with pan-seared scallops.

Nice nose of citrus, cedar, toast, vanilla, spices, golden apples and white pepper.
Medium plus in body and elegant, with medium plus acidity.
Dry on the palate with oak, vanilla, citrus, apples, light pineapple, pears and light earth.
Tangy finish with limes and black pepper.
This is a tasty Chardonnay from Sonoma Coast. Refreshing and easy to drink. Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel.
Needs 15 minutes of airtime to remove some of the vanilla notes, and balance itself out.
Alcohol is well integrated, so you better watch out.
Good by itself or with food, and will be nice to revisit it in a couple of years.
100% Chardonnay grapes were aged in mostly French oak barrels for 6 months on their lees.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
90 points.
$26.

From several noteable vineyards, palate shows ripe peach, tropical fruits with some apricot and citrusy flavors. The wine shows some depth, good balance, crisp acidity, and finishes with creamy notes and some gentle spice. Nice value. Much better than ‘13.
