Jason-Stephens 2012 Estate Reserve Chardonnay (Santa Clara Valley)

Country: US / California
Variety: Chardonnay
Winery: Jason-Stephens / Estate Reserve

Lime pith, sharp gray slate, steel and a warmer lemon-curd aroma show on the nose of this wine from a region between Morgan Hill and Gilroy. Apples and pear-skin bitterness mark the palate that grows riper through the sip.
