This is creamy, with a lingering finish. Drink now through 2012. 2,073 cases made, 250 cases imported.??–AN??Region: Spain / Somontano Select to Add

Yellow in color, with a waxy nose that’s baked, rich, a bit stalky but also honeyed. The palate is round, hefty and thick, with full melon and peach flavors in front of a plump, woody finish. Good as you’re likely to find among Spanish Chardonnay. ——M.S.(12/15/2010)—— 88
