The 2012 Frank Family Vyds Chardonnay is a super delish Carneros effort! Aromatic, with core fruit and an accent of delectable sweet oak; drives long and tenderly on the palate; steers into the place of precision and crispness. Perfect with Oysters Rocketfeller. A big yum to this one! #chardonnay #carneros #wine #californiawine

Ripe fruit, apple, pear, citrus and of course tropical. Creamy on the palate. Long finish and nicely balanced.

Good buttery wine that you can drink alone or with food - we enjoyed salmon with this wine and what a pair!
