Santa Barbara Winery 2014 Reserve Chardonnay (Sta. Rita Hills)

Country: US / Reserve
Variety: Chardonnay California
Winery: Santa Barbara Winery / Sta. Rita Hills

Warm butter and light toasted oak scents meld with smoked lemon and walnut hints on the nose of this reserve bottling. The palate is soft and almost sweet upon entry, its cashew and roasted apple flavors buttressed by a grippy tannic texture.
