The 2017 Chardonnay Beckstoffer Carneros Lake Vineyard comes prancing out of the glass with exuberant scents of ripe apricots, honeydew melon and green guava plus suggestions of honey-drizzled toast, orange blossoms, lemongrass and marzipan. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has a gorgeous satiny texture and is stacked with tropical and stone fruit layers, featuring a seamless backbone of freshness and finishing very long and honey laced. Delicious!

Ripe stone fruits, pineapple, and white flower notes emerge from the 2017 Chardonnay Beckstoffer Lake Vineyard, and it's beautifully balanced, medium-bodied, has good acidity, and subtle creamy oak. This is a classy, beautifully done Chardonnay.
