The 2012 Chardonnay Ellen Lane Estate, from the Russian River, is an exuberant, nearly flamboyant, rich, honeyed white revealing hazelnut, peach cobbler, caramelized citrus and delicate pineapple notes. Full-bodied, fresh and concentrated, this is a superb expression of Chardonnay from estate vineyards in Russian River. Like the Edward James Estate cuvée, it is a limited production wine of under 350 cases produced.
