  Fruit forward chard with depth and strength. Enjoyable yet perhaps too young. Still clumsy in integration of its ripe white fruit flavors with kiwi and its gangly structured acidity.
  Recommend aerating it while cold and letting it decant for an hour to blow off volatile vapors.

  Balance is what makes this a year-round Chardonnay. Poached pears, mellow butterscotch, and soft caramel play against fresh minerality on the nose, opening into airy cheesecake and fried plantains on the palate. A soft, plush mouthfeel with a finish of cool silk and delicious toast barrel notes will keep you pouring one mor glass.
