The 2018 Chardonnay Reserve offers up opulent scents of praline, cinnamon, clove oil and nutmeg, over a core of baked apples, pineapple upside-down cake and pear tart, plus a hint of cedar. The full-bodied palate is richly fruited with a decadent oiliness to the texture and plenty of freshness to balance, finishing long and spicy.

Starting with the 2018 Chardonnay Reserve, this estate makes a solid white that offers classy notes of caramelized citrus, brioche, honeycomb, and classy oak. It's a rich, powerful, classic Napa Valley Chardonnay done with style. Drink it over the coming 2-4 years.
