Heavenly tropical aromas of gardenia and ripe pineapple are brought down to earth by yummy scents of lemon cookies. Surprisingly, the expected buttery notes from this popular—and well-respected—label are reined in by vivid acidity. Brisk notes of salted pear, basil leaf, and pine nut edge in midway. This may be one of the top food-friendly Chardonnays out there for under $20.
Winemaker Notes
Aromas of peach, hazelnut and spiced candied apple breeze around the brim. Round, creamy notes of fig, butterscotch and sweet oak dance on the palate.
