With a lovely golden straw color, the 2013 Chardonnay shows notes of citrus, pineapple and a hint of caramel. On the palate, the wine is fresh and crisp with citrus, red and green apple and stone fruit layers. We find it has a long finish with great focus. Start drinking with Thanksgiving dinner and cellar through 2020.
