Some oak on here, and lots of pineapple. Big on the palate, maybe a touch of RS, characteristic for the style and maybe even the place given the high acid.

Rich yellow color. The nose shows nutty and honeyed elements, with yellow apples and lemon curd, along with some almond and white tea. Plump texture on the palate, moderating acidity, this wine sports apricot and orange marmalade fruit mixed with elements of honey, graham cracker, cinnamon sticks, with some hay and salted almond tones. Ripe and delicious, but stays focused, too. Aged 10 months in 85% oak, 15% new, 50% maloactic fermentation.

Unoaked and, therefore, a fresher profile. I like their Hyde Vineyard Chardonnay better. A reasonable effort with lemon and grapefruit on the palate.
