A perfect Chardonnay. Balance of wonderful Apple fruit, citrus, oak and texture.

Balanced, rich, nice minerality. A large Chard that keeps everything in check. Should age for several years

Another wine that complicates the California Chardonnay picture: but for the high alcohol, this could be Burgundy.

Rich golden color. Coming along. Butterscotch,lemon peel, and a little flint. Acid should keep this going for a while.

Strong aroma, deep gold color. Oak. Good clean finish. An excellent example of Chardonnay.
