Odds & Ends; 12/8/2012-1/6/2013: Rich and creamy nose, showing gobs of fresh white peach, a dish of lemon-lime, and some orange blossom. The palate starts off with high acid, but then this creamy pear fruit comes in and adds richness. 25% of the wine sees new French oak, which adds delicious hazelnut and shredded coconut accents. The underlying fruit and structure allows the oak to take a back seat, and the overall wine is very balanced. I would proudly serve this at a blind tasting, just to see what other people think of it. Undenyiably good fruit, and solid winemaking make this an impressive chardonnay.

Very clean, fresh, slightly oaky flavor, went well with chicken dish.
