Pretty tropical and oaked nose. Pineapple, Mango, key lime. Round, textural midpalate but finishes bright and clean.

So delicious. Coconut, lime, pineapple, green apple, butterscotch. Sounds like a weird mix of flavors? But it works so well

not an oaked fan but it's clean and crisp, white pepper finish, creamy butterscotch with grated lemon zest and green apples

Great wine. Hints of brioche and Meyer lemon. Would be very curious to taste again in 10 years. #williamsselyem #cheers #chardonnay

Peachy ripe stone fruit, rich, nice balance of oak. Just past it’s peak.

Maybe this is pat it's prime. Beautiful color though.

Not as familiar with WS Chardonnay as with its pinots, but I thoroughly enjoyed this wine. Crisp, mellow citrus, and bright in both color and flavor. A beautiful start to the evening. Thanks, Amy, for sharing your find!

Pineapple is very forward in this slightly oaky but not overpowering chard. Pair poolside with pork or chicken teriyaki kabobs.
