Reserve Santa Lucia Highlands Chardonnay

Taking its name from the sea and sun – the two forces of nature that shape its character. Pale lemon, aromas of Stone and tropical fruits, with floral and sweet spice notes. On the palate flavors of apple, peach & apricot with lemon zest and toasty vanilla notes. Smooth long finish, well balanced, nice acidity, ending with fruit, vanilla oak and mineral character. Sip’s well now. Pair this with some fresh tuna!

Layered ripe tropical fruit, nice richness. This wine is super easy to enjoy

All the malo oak butter richness you could want - and still food friendly

I’ve had previous vintages of this where it tasted like fresh squeezed oak juice. Very pleasantly surprised at how much more restrained this one is. Nice purity of fruit with a citrus and honeysuckle core and a finish that lets the fruit linger.

10k gold core fully concentrated out to a slim pale yellow rim. Medium plus intensity of aroma features pineapple, coconut, ginger, melted butter, and tobacco leaf. A dry wine with medium but mouthwatering acid. Full body, rich, creamy, slightly viscous texture,spicy but well integrated alcohol at 14.5%. A touch of bitterness on the medium plus finish that features vanilla, butter, caramel, baked spiced apple, ginger. Oaky coconut and a slight phenolic astringency linger beyond the fruit.

My favorite Chardonnay to date. Tastes pretty full bodied and rich with fruits.

Creamy, buttery , rich Chardonnay. A delightful mouthful.

Butter anyone...tasty. Real smooth too!

Oak bomb that was, well, pretty tasty.

Oakey and a little buttery. Overall, I liked it and I'm not much of a Chardonnay drinker.
