Wine Review: This yellow colored Chardonnay from the Edna Valley opens with a musty oak and pear bouquet with a hint of pineapple. On the palate, this wine is full bodied, balanced and rich. The flavor profile is an oak influenced Bosc pear with notes of pineapple and Werther's Original caramel candy. The finish is dry and its flavors stick around for quite a long time. This Chard is rich enough to be enjoyed on its own. Enjoy – Ken (SIP Certified)

Winemaker Notes: Displaying aromas of pear, pineapple, tangerine and vanilla this classic Chardonnay from the Edna Valley shows flavors of tropical fruit, with a hint of minerality and a creamy texture. Refreshing acidity keeps the wine lively and fresh from start to finish, a signature of Paragon Vineyard, and is topped off with the excellent accompaniment of vanilla bean and toasted oak.
