This takes ripe fruit and oak influence to the limits, with powerful flavors of buttered toast, pineapple, orange jam and vanilla-cream. This defines the flashy style of California Chardonnay, with a honeyed finish.

A fine followup to the 2008, this Chardonnay, from a high valley between Sonoma County and Napa Valley, combines rich tropical fruit with good acidity and an earthiness that grounds it. Feels complex in the mouth, taking the California style and wrestling it to elegance.
