July 29, 2016 - What a great chardonnay, and what a great value! Fruit profile is tropical... dried pineapple, papaya, passion fruit. There's some oak here, but just enough to give that satisfying richness that you hope for in a CA chardonnay, and just enough to balance out the acidity and play off of the minerality. Finesse and balance at this price point are hard to come by, but Qupe nailed it here.
There's a small amount of Roussanne blended in, and it's very nicely done. It rounds off the edges without making this wine flabby or dull.
