V14. Outstanding. Soft vanilla and toast nose. Creamy tropical and apricot fruit. Smooth oak finish. Lasting flavors.

Interesting and different, definitely not a typical Napa Chardonnay. Lightly sweet with some tart characteristics, but not a fresh wine either. No butter to speak of. This is a unique wine that is enjoyable by both fans and detractors of California style Chardonnay.
