A bit of oak on the nose, malo very present, and then a surprise - barnyard on a California Chardonnay. The taste was a light citrus, maybe pineapple and tropical citrus. It had mouthwatering acidity, seamless front to back, and then some pleasant minerality on the long finish. Nice Chardonnay, interesting region, but I still prefer the ZD Chardonnay as my favorite. About $50. Tasted February 2010.
