Cooper-Garrod 2011 Gravel Ridge Vineyard Estate Chardonnay (Santa Cruz Mountains)

Country: US / Gravel Ridge Vineyard Estate
Variety: Chardonnay California
Winery: Cooper-Garrod / Santa Cruz Mountains

This Chardonnay already shows quite a bit of age. Hazelnut and chestnut dominate the nose with burnt lemon peel acidity at the edges. The palate picks up roasted marshmallow and roasted nut flavors, followed by a toffee finish. Drink now.
