"A smoking effort that will give a number of more expensive Burgundies a run for their money, the 2012 Chardonnay Santa Lucia Highlands is loaded with mineral-drenched white flowers, citrus, lychee nut and brioche-like aromas and flavors. Aged 11 months in 35% new French oak and bottled unfined and unfiltered, it flows onto the palate with an elegant, taut and focused feel that carries solid concentration and acidity. Enjoy this knockout Chardonnay . . ."

The fourth-largest wine producer in the world, led by California. American fine wine is defined by ripe, expressive fruit and a spirit of innovation, with Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon among the most sought-after wines globally.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
