Adelaida 2005 HMR Estate Santa Lucia Highland Range Chardonnay (Paso Robles)

Country: US / California
Variety: Chardonnay
Winery: Adelaida / HMR Estate Santa Lucia Highland Range

Fans of superfruity, oaky, big Chards will love this one. The grapes came from outside the true Santa Lucia Highlands AVA, but the wine shows similar power, with incredibly ripe, jammy yellow tropical fruit flavors accompanied by rich acidity. There’s also a lot of new, smoky oak.
