San Francisco Wine Panel 92 Points

This rather European-styled Chardonnay is pretty, soft-edged and gently creamy to the nose, where firm white and yellow peach, baked apple, preserved lemon, vanilla wafer, and nutmeg scents find a genteel harmony. An undercurrent of minerality brings firmness to the palate, where white peach, apple, golden mulberry, honey and hazelnut nougat flavors find an elegant, food worthy balance and linger attractively. Built for food service yet quite appealing when served by itself, it is ready to enjoy. 200 cases produced.
