Light buttered oak on smell, and similarly so on taste. Hard to get a good sense as it seemed to be conflicting with food I was eating, which is often what I find with oaked white wines. I appreciated it’s lightness and piquant acidity.

Pale gold in color with smokey aromas and apple and pear tart on the nose. Medium bodied with medium acidity and tropical fruit up front. Ripe pineapple and a touch of ginger and lemon zest round out the elegant finish.

The 2016 is a little bit off. Not what I expected from Ridge, which is usually excellent. The nose is perfect, and it is only moderately oaked, with some apple flavors mixed with butter. But there is an off flavor in the finish.

Sweet honeysuckle notes , with tropical intensity , nice acidity . Complex yet balanced , Minerality combined with selenite . Very impressive expression of California Chardonnay.
