Perfectly acceptable single vineyard chard, but losing steam already and had only moderate complexity

Local wine. Apricot, dark chocolate. It’s a Pinot actually. Delicious!

2013 Testa Rossa Chardonnay, Rosella's Vineyard (California Santa Lucia Highlands).

Best-balanced TR Chardonnay to date: nice aromas of honeysuckle and lemon, mid-bodied across the palate with nice green apple acid balanced with a touch of oak on the finish. Super good.
