the trick with getting a chardonnay this honeyed is to keep it balanced and make it finish dry. lynmar accomplishes these tasks with dexterity. partly because of the acidity, partly the stony, crystalline minerality. the wine is terrifically rich in tropical fruits, melons, sweet meyer lemons and ripe summer peaches, with all the buttered toast you could ever want from oak. in lesser hands, it would all be too much.
