With notes of roasted pineapple and exotic fruits, this 100% Chardonnay from South San Francisco is very appealing. Subtly controlled oak aging adds structure to this white wine, which can be enjoyed as an aperitif or paired with simple fish dishes.

Review and comment by Mr. JEROME C. Posted on June 26, 2018

A typical California Chardonnay, but well-made—not too oaky—and different from what you might find in Burgundy, yet at a price that holds its own against white Burgundies in the €15–20 range. I’ve been familiar with this wine for several years, and the quality is consistently good. A great bottle!
