The Drunken Cyclist Likes this wine: 92 points
March 1, 2019 - Retail $24. A blend of Chardonnay from three counties (48% Santa Barbara County, 43% Sonoma County, 9% Mendocino County), I have tried countless domestic Chardonnays, but this might be the run-away winner (particularly at this price) with its aromas of lemon curd, a touch of oak, and vanilla. The palate? Balance. Beautiful. Great body, just the right amount of fruit, and a killer finish. Jed Steele assures me that it is not his superhero name. Or a porn star moniker. Maybe it should be. Damn. This is good. Excellent. 91-93 Points.
