    Aromas are wintery in baking spices and cinnamon stick. Flavors follow suit, awash in rich vanilla and butterscotch with a layering of ripe tropical fruit and apple.

    Simple and cloying in white sugar notes. Too bad, because there's good acidity and succulent citrus and tropical fruit flavors.

  • 201082 pts

    Made in the modern style, a predictable Chardonnay with too much oak riding on top of too thin fruit, finishing sweet and cloying.
