Wine Review: This nicely composed and refined Russian River single vineyard Chardonnay is a deep buttery yellow color and has golden apple, crisp pear and notes of vanilla cream in the bouquet. On the palate it is lush and mouth-coating, with a medium-plus body and medium-plus acid and is balanced and creamy. There are flavors of crisp pear and pineapple with a hint of spice and integrated oak. The finish has some nice tangy acidity and is long and dry. It would pair nicely with a baked stuffed lobster. – Mark

Winemaker Notes: This impressive Russian River Chardonnay is full of apple and pear aromas woven with notes of vanilla and oak. The palate is creamy and soft with a bright, crisp finish.
