A massive wine, just tremendous. Made from 97% Chardonnay and 3% Viognier, it’s extraordinarily rich and concentrated in grilled pineapple, pear, peach and lime flavors, with a coating of sweet, vanilla-scented creme brulee. There’s an authoritative minerality all the way through that grounds and sustains the fruit. The grapes come from warmer vineyards throughout Santa Barbara County. ——S.H.(2/1/2011)—— 94
