    Grown on the east side of the Salinas Valley, opposite the Santa Lucia Highlands, this Chardonnay shows excellent Monterey acidity and dryness. The pineapple, green apple and peach fruit flavors are nice and streamlined, making the wine elegant and food friendly.

    Too acidic, almost sour, and pretty sweet, with pineapple and orange flavors. Gets the Chardonnay job done, but seems pricey for what you get.
