  1. Golden in color.

    Elegant nose with citrus, vanilla, spices and light oak.

    Medium plus in body with medium acidity. Buttery, yet crisp.

    Dry on the palate with limes, grapefruits, citrus, green apples, spices, light oak, vanilla and herbs.

    Medium finish with bitter almonds and limes.

    This this is an easy drinking Chardonnay from Spring Mountain District in Napa valley. Feels young and fresh, and showing mild complexity at this point.

    Nicely balanced and spicy, with a buttery mouthfeel.

    This is what one expects from a Chardonnay from Napa Valley, very true to the Terroir. Would be nice to revisit it in a year or two and see how it evolved.

    Needs 15 minutes of airtime, and better when not too cold.

    Good by itself or with food. Paired nicely with the Italian Prosciutto.

    Handpicked Chardonnay grapes were aged for 7 months in French and American Oak barrels.

    13.9% alcohol by volume.

    90 points.

    $46.

    Is this the wine owned by Tool vocalist Maynard James Keenan?

    Keenan, Peju and Ledson were some of our first great experiences in wine country years ago.
