Estate Chardonnay Reviews

The opulence of this Chard comes at least as much from the buttered toast and caramel notes of oak, as it does from the underlying pineapple and tropical fruit flavors. It’s a crowd pleaser. Drink now. —

A touch raw and pithy in texture, this offers a racy edge to its citrus, peach and nectarine flavors. Clean and snappy on the finish. Drink now through 2016. 41 cases made. –JL

Tastes of perfectly ripened pineapple, pear, lime and peach flavors. On the structural side is fine acidity and a tangy minerality, like a lick of cold steel. Oak is here, notable but perfectly integrated. Give this Chard a little time in the glass to breathe. — S.H. (6/1/2012)
