Tasting notes
The 2015 Chardonnay Central Coast 40th Anniversary Vintage offers up notes of buttered orchard fruit, apricots, fresh peach and honey. On the palate, it's medium-bodied, luscious and ample, with nice concentration and a bright line of acidity, concluding with a crisp, pure finish. It's a great value and probably best enjoyed in the next 2 or 3 years.

The 2015 Chardonnay (Mt. Harlan) is rich, voluptuous and beautifully textured. Candied lemon peel, white flowers and mint are front and center. The richness of the vintage comes through, but the Mt. Harlan Chardonnay clearly has the frame and overall structure to handle it.
The 2015 Chardonnay, which is labeled as the Fortieth Anniversary Vintage, has a ripe, yet classy and balanced style to go with lots of spiced orchard fruits, honeysuckle, and brioche aromas and flavors. It has beautifully sweet fruit, nicely integrated acidity and clean finish, all of which make it a smoking good Chardonnay that will drink nicely for 2-3 years.
