Thought this was gonna be an oak monster and was pleasantly surprised how restrained and balanced it was. Ripe pear and very slight tropics. Fresh and lifted on the palate with just a kiss of (neutral?) oak. Great value.

Woody aroma. Pale yellow. Fruitiness is more than acidic. Quite rich, honey. Enough acidity came, depending on temperature increase. @1499, Eva - XH, 190508-190907

Strong scent of petroleum on nose with some mild citrus. Light straw color. Typical California Chardonnay. Very round. Lots of fruit with balancing acidity

V16. Nicely done. Creme brule nose. Creamy tropical pear fruit finished with a touch of honey. Soft oak and mineral finish.
