Natalie's Score: 88/100

Balanced and tasty with some butterscotch and fresh green apple aromas on the nose and palate of this Californian Chardonnay. The grapes for this white wine are farmed organically, as are all other grapes and wines this winery makes. Consistently good producer. Pair with free range chicken.

Chardonnay food pairings: scallops with a sesame ginger dressing, grilled seafood, spinach and pepper jack stuffed chicken, beef bourguignon.

Outstanding Organic Wine

Reviews and Ratings

Rachelle O'Connor rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

This full bodied Chardonnay from California has lip smacking flavors of butterscotch, baked apple, pear and citrus coupled with a buttery mouthfeel and a lingering toasty almond finish. Delish!
