Wine Review: This pale straw-colored Chardonnay opens with a lime and pineapple bouquet with a hint of coconut. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, slightly acidic and juicy. The flavor profile is a mineral infused green apple with notes of Bosc pear and quince. I also picked up a hint of pineapple towards the end. The finish is dry and pleasantly refreshing. This Chard is very food friendly and would pair nicely with chicken piccata. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Glistening straw yellow with a faint green hue and fragrant aromas of white flower, Asian pear, and wet stone underpin the wine’s expression of its true Sonoma Coast roots. Alluring stone fruit flavors carry the palate along with hints of citrus and honeysuckle that evolve into a creamy mid-palate before ending in a long, clean finish with crisp acidity.
