Stags' Leap Winery
Napa Valley Chardonnay
Straw colored with a greenish cast. Hints of butter and oak on the nose with a touch of honeysuckle. Attack is soft and rich with good oxidized notes in the midpalate and then a screaming wave of sappy acid in the finish. I was prepared to hate this wine, but I like it.
