Central Coast, California, USA
Nice value in a balanced Cali Chardonnay. Nose has beautiful pear juice, a little char from the oak, but not too much, and a wet clay-like earthy note. Round and balanced in the mouth. Persistent finish. Comparable to a good Pouilly-Fuisse or Saint Veran.

Definitely some malo and a little oak, but it’s still restrained compared to your stereotypical CA chard. In my mind, that’s a good thing. Paired well with a simple roast chicken.
