Wine Review: This light-yellow colored Chardonnay opens with a pineapple, pear and mango bouquet. On the palate, this wine medium bodied, slightly acidic and round. The flavor profile is a toasted hazelnut, gravely minerality and pineapple blend. I also detected hints of pear and kettle corn in the background. The finish is dry and its flavors and gentle acidity drift away nicely. This Chard would pair nicely with Lucia’s butternut squash ravioli with a fresh sage and creamy parmesan cheese sauce. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: The nose is complex, forward and pure with hints of stone fruit, grilled almonds, Meyer lemon and toasted oak. On the palate the wine delivers the perfect balance of flavor, richness and structure. Fresh and lively, this is a Chardonnay that pairs perfectly with everything from seafood to ripe cheeses.
