Sextant 2013 Reserve Chardonnay (Santa Lucia Highlands)

Country: US / Reserve
Variety: Chardonnay California
Winery: Sextant / Santa Lucia Highlands

The Paso producer heads a bit north to produce this wine. Aromas suggest browned butter, lemon slices, pan-seared peach and a bit of smoke, with some steely aromatic backbone. The palate is consumed by lemon blossoms and buttered toast.
