That is one terrific Chardonnay. Immediately tasted butterscotch undertones. Great balance between acidity and fruit. They've done a great job with this wine.

Sharp mid-green gold; Chardonnay nose, minerals, light oak which intensifies with more air; round, ripe (14.4 alc.), good varietal flavor, long fruity finish. w/grilled halibut.

Somewhat oxidized but was drinkable. The color was like honey.
