A bit of buttery goodness with enough acid to balance and a bit of oak for complexity.

Nicely integrated, more butter on the nose than taste, ripe apple with a smooth finish. Nice Chardonnay, my preference is old world Chard, this was nice.

Deep golden color, rich and buttery with ample oak. Lemon curd and a hint of green apple; the bit of acidity keeps it just about in balance.
