Bearwallow Vineyard, Chardonnay,

A touch of cream and fine salt, plenty of flavour here, perhaps less elegance than the Mt. Pajaro, but more cut and depth. A touch more fruit weight here and more dry extract. Fresh stone fruit, touches of lemon flesh, there’s simply more to chew on here. To Jeff’s mind there’s always “an earthiness to Bearwallow that keeps some of the fruit in check”. The best Bearwallow Chardonnay we’ve tasted, and a new wine for us to offer as a result.
