The 2016 Chardonnay is a rich, flamboyant Chardonnay that remains in balance, offering up lots of creamy, toasty oak, cotton candy, spice and caramelized pear on the nose. On the palate, the medium to full-bodied wine reveals nice concentration, juicy acids and good length. Flavorful and intense, a touch more restraint with the new oak would see this score even higher.
