Oaky California Chardonnay with vanilla and creamy flavors. My 2016 bottle was still fresh and vibrant. An outstanding example of this type of Chardonnay.

Vertical tasting. Here is the ‘16, drunk alongside the ‘17. The fruit is significantly more pronounced in the ‘16, along with the caramel characteristic, while the acid and minerality are softener.
