Wine Review: This pale yellow colored Chardonnay opens with a mild lemon and almond bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, slightly acidic, yet round in the mouth. The flavor profile is a lemon and yellow grapefruit blend with notes stone fruit, almond and a dash of white pepper. The finish is dry and its flavors and gentle acidity fade away nicely. This Chard is a fresh option to consider on a hot summer day. Pair with a grilled mahi-mahi sandwich. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: This refreshing Chardonnay erupts with captivating layers of pineapple, bright green apple and fresh Meyer lemon, juicy pear and wildflowers. It shows refreshing acidity and sleek mineral notes which are balanced by a rounded mid-palate and a long, pure fruit finish.
