the vintage was very kind to chardonnay, and the balance shows in the fantastically ripe, exotic pineapple tart, lemondrop candy, buttered toast, sandalwood and sweet, dusty spice flavors of this immaculately dry, crisp wine. it's strong and impressive now, and not particularly subtle, but should have a narrow window of near perfection. 2011–2013.
