Wine Review: This dark yellow colored Chardonnay from Stonestreet is Excellent! It opens with a musty oak and light lemon tart bouquet. On the palate, this wine is full bodied, super smooth and balanced. The flavor profile is a very tasty oak and pineapple blend with notes of nutmeg and chamomile tea. I also detected hints of apple strudel. The finish is dry and its flavors drift away nicely. This Chard delightful on its own. Share a bottle with the Chard lover in your life. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: Broken Road is consistently one of the raciest wines from the Mountain Estate. With the 2016 vintage, it delivers that lusty character alongside toasted marshmallow, poached pear, lemon curd, and a hint of grilled white peach. A supple mid-palate delivers a generous counterpoint amid all that intensity—all culminating in a laser-focused, mineral-rich, mouthwatering finish.
