Shafer is an excellent producer. First time trying their Chardonnay, was very good. Quality of fruit is evident with great acidity and balance. Medium finish with apple and pear. Slight oak and vanilla. 92 points.

Fresh citrus fruit along with tropical notes of mango and yellow kiwi. Marginal elements of beeswax and melted butter. Also smoke and light oak flavors plus some floral details. More mineral on the palate with predominantly citrus fruit. Precise and linear, but failed to impress with a somehow dull palate.

A bit of pear or lychee adds a note of sweetness.

Great balance, more fruit and citrus driven than oak or vanilla. Will be better in a few years but also very enjoyable now.
