The 2015 Chardonnay Fermata offers up white peaches, spiced apples and lemon curd scents with touches of toasty oak and buttered bread. Medium-bodied with a pleasantly oily texture, it has a good amount of stone fruit and oak-laced flavors, finishing on a savory note.

The 2014 Chardonnay Fermata (which is the Italian word for "halted") went through partial malolactic fermentation and was brought up in 20-25% new French oak. It's a big, rich, buttery, medium to full-bodied effort that offers lots of fig, white currants and vanilla bean aromas and flavors. It's not for those looking for unoaked Chablis, but it has a beautiful texture, solid mid-palate depth and delivers serious richness, all while not being over the top or heavy. I'd drink it over the coming 3-4 years, but wouldn't be surprised to see it keep longer.

Going partially through malolactic fermentation, the 2012 Chardonnay Fermata is 100% Chardonnay that spent ten months in barrel. Borderline outstanding, it gives up classic apple, citrus blossom, brioche and hints of green herbs/mint to go with a medium-bodied, balanced and juicy style on the palate. It's a fresh, lively 2012 to drink over the coming couple of years.

A rich, textured and supple effort that gives up baked apple, spice and hints of toast, the 2011 Chardonnay Fermata is an exuberantly fruited effort that’s nicely balanced. It’s best consumed sooner rather than later. Drink now. Tel. (831) 678-2212; www.wrathwines.com
