Chardonnay
>$50
Description
The distinctly rocky soils of this classic Santa Lucia Highlands vineyard shine again.Packed within a pale lemon hue and tinges of youthful green, this wine offers brazen aromas of lime zest, crisp pear,and stone fruits up front while undertones of marzipan and chalky minerals develop as moments pass. On the palate, this Chardonnay is driven by striking notes of lemon meringue, red apple, and a hint of toasted vanilla bean. Enjoy over time as subtleties gain depth and power. The wine culminates in a textured and long finish that is carried along by vibrant acidity.
