I'm usually in the ABC crowd, but this is a Chardonnay I'll happily drink! 2013 was an amazing vintage in the Napa Valley for white & red varietals.

The grapes for the 2013 vintage are sourced from Oakville, a change from previous vintages. This Chardonnay is bright yellow-gold in color and has a substantial mouthfeel and fresh acidity. Aromas and flavors of green apple, pear, and yellow citrus are layered and persistent throughout, intertwined with nuttiness and smokiness from time spent in 100% French oak. The finish is complex, long, and lingering. Kudos to winemaker Robert Hunt.

Notes of lemon, pear, nice acidity. A great offering from a primarily Cab producing winery.

Anderson's Conn Valley Vineyard visit. 100% new oak, but pretty integrated. No Mali. Nicely done.
