100% Chardonnay (for a change). Bright gold with green gold highlights. Nose is a bit shy, but the palate is a caramel peach explosion! Very big body (15.2% abv) that's only slightly mitigated by medium minus acidity. Finish is moderately long and continues the palate. To be honest, the only thing wrong with this is the far too high alcohol. I get that it's a "house" signature, but in this case it kills what would otherwise be a really nice New World Chardonnay. Decant for a long time before drinking and use a bit in a cream sauce. Drink now.
