Elegant, graceful, and stylish, this delectable Napa Valley Chardonnay will appeal to lovers of both California Chardonnay and white Burgundy. Notes of citrus, mineral, crisp apple, and white peach are artfully supported by a round, creamy mouthfeel, and brioche notes from partial barrel fermentation. The finish is remarkable, lasting a full 30 seconds, echoing with notes of stone fruit, white flowers, and Burgundy-like flintiness. With seemingly everything going up in price, it amazes me that one can still get a Chardonnay this good for less than $25.
— Ben Giliberti, CW Director of Wine Education
