Although tight and unevolved, this Chardonnay is promising. The nose hints at ripe fruit, subtle oak, spice, vanillin, oranges, and honey. Medium to full-bodied, with excellent acidity, fine concentration, and an overall sense of purity and balance, this tightly knit, crisp, authoritatively flavored Chardonnay should benefit from six more months of cellaring. It will last for 2-4 years. Tel. (805) 489-0446
