Lovely aromas of white melon, lush nectarine and citrus leaf are precise while plush on the nose of this bottling. A bright acidity and tactile tension surrounds the sip, where flavors of citrus and stonefruit align.
Wine Tasting Notes
Gainey Estate Sta. Rita Hills Chardonnay boasts fresh golden apple, spiced pear and melon aromas with citrus and mineral undertones and hints of vanilla, honey and oak spice. Rich and creamy on the palate, its succulent honeyed apple, white peach, lemon-lime and mineral flavors are nicely accented by subtle, spicy oak tones in the long, refreshing finish. Delicious now, this superb Santa Ynez Valley chardonnay will drink beautifully over the next 2-3 years.
