Critic's Rating 91 pts

A classic example of oaked Chardonnay. Ripe golden delicious apple, pineapple, popcorn, and vanilla notes. This is a dry wine, with fresh acidity to clear off the ripe flavours. This wine would go well with seafood, mildly seasoned pasta in a cream-based sauce, or a nutty slice of gruyere.
