Wine Review: This white gold colored Chardonnay from Sonoma opens with a fresh lemon and oak bouquet with hints of wet stone. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is bright, mouthwatering, and juicy. The flavor profile is an oak influenced golden delicious apple with notes of vanilla and grilled pineapple. I also detected hints of Bartlett pear, butter, and a touch of Werther’s Original candy in the after taste. The finish is dry, and its flavors linger and last for quite some time. This Chard would pair well with creamy garlic chicken. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Brilliant straw color with silver highlights at the rim. The wine is aromatic with notes of yellow apple, nearly ripe peach, fresh pear, and wet stone. On the richly balanced palate, ripe apple and pear notes give way to riper tropical fruits of mango and pineapple, filling out the midpalate. As the finish approaches, vanilla, toasted almond, and baking spice enter with light herbal notes and refreshing acidity that invites another sip. This wine will shine paired with a whole-roasted chicken with fresh herbs and caramelized peaches.
