Lush in toffee and rounded layers of rich oak and crème brûlée, this sultry Chardonnay delivers a lot of heft. The wine is crafted from a stellar vineyard and given just over a year in 50% new French oak. The toasty notes are balanced by a taste of pear tart in custard.

New French oak, to the tune of 50%, dominates this Chard, giving it buttered toast, vanilla and honey flavors that dominate the underlying pineapples, lemons and limes. The acidity is brisk and vital.
