With notes of roasted pineapple and exotic fruits, this 100% Chardonnay from South San Francisco is truly delightful. Subtly integrated oak adds structure to this white wine , which pairs equally well as an aperitif or with sweet-and-salty, spicy exotic dishes. An ode to pleasure and indulgence! (screw cap)

A rich, full-bodied wine, almost sweet. It could have been nice, but a poorly integrated bitterness spoils the enjoyment.

Review by Mr. JEROME C. Posted on July 11, 2020

A full-bodied Chardonnay, a bit rich but very satisfying (in terms of taste and value for money) compared to Burgundies that cost at least twice as much!!

It’s an explosion of everything! A very surprising wine, highly aromatic on the nose and palate, with good length...

Pair it with cheese!! It’s top-notch—well-balanced with a rich, full-bodied flavor.

Review by Mr. ERIC S. Posted on July 2, 2019

Well made, but I wasn't blown away... I found it had a slightly odd aroma of yellow fruit and a distinctive taste. Good for an aperitif.
