The 2011 Chardonnay Ma Vie Carol wraps around the palate with dried apricots, honey, almonds and spices. A relatively rich, buttery wine for the year, the 2011 is all about textural volume and depth. There is good energy and vibrancy on the finish, but the aromas and flavors are evolving quickly. The Ma Vie Carol looks to be a bit of a work in progress. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2016. I tasted a wide range of wines from Capture this year. In my view, the whites are stronger than the reds.Tel. (707) 395-0457
