The wine exhibits a brilliant straw-gold color. On the nose, notes of minerals, cinnamon and toast follow tropical fruits and Fuji apples. Rich yet lively on the palate, the wine shows the Santa Lucia Highland’s style of balanced, integrated, flavorful Chardonnays with fresh cream, ripe peach, apricot, cantaloupe, orange blossoms and sweet toasty oak, with a ripe pear finish. Don’t be afraid to lay this wine down for a few years!
