2004 Tantalizing Chardonnay

A bright, fruit-driven wine with a crisp acid kick, makes this a beautifully drinkable Chardonnay. Pale straw with attractive green hues, the wine’s lifted aromas of pear and tropical fruit burst out of the glass. Subtle bass notes of smoky barrel ferment and vanilla oak add depth to the fruit. On the palate, a bowlful of ripe melon, pear and green apple flavors harmonize with balanced oak and a welcome crispness. The wine’s elegant balance makes it a food-friendly complement to a wide variety of dishes.
