We pnp'd at dinner. White flowers on the nose with hints of almond. The palate was pear and apricot with a little oak. A nice finish made it a very enjoyable wine

Established in 2002, 5000cs total production. 10m in barrel for appellation wines, so they're bottled before the next harvest. Some of the single vineyard wines may get additional time in barrel. Early picked from Heintz in Occidental. Barrel ferment, only 10% new. Also some Keefer fruit in here too. Light oak to the nose, but more leesy than oaky. Same can be said for the palate, with oak making more of a pronouncement on the finish. Lots of roast grain notes to the nose.

Understated Chardonnay, with balance and class as Antonio Galloni describes it well. Leesy tropical fruit at a modest level. Best at a warmer temp.

Consistently good. Nicely balanced Oak. Perfect with Asian food.
