Bright, clean and vibrant nose of bees wax, apricot, sage and white flowers. Racy acidity with a refreshing mouth full of grapefruit, lemon balm, and nectarines. The zippy finish is laden with wet stone, citrus zest and white pepper.

14’ Smith - Madrone. I’m really liking this one. Gorgeous!
Tangerine, zesty orange, Oak on the front and mid-palate. Followed by A healthy dose of acidity. Thinking you could sit this bottle of Chardonnay down for the next 7/8 years. Pleasantly surprised! The only knock(besides the label) this wine...It’s a bit hollow. Need to check this winery out on spring mountain!!

Richer mouthfeel and more wood than prior vintages but an excellent example of the style
