"A little closed to begin, the 2017 Chardonnay Reserve is slowly unfurling to reveal notions of Golden Delicious apples, pear tart, marzipan and fresh hay plus nuances of ginger and coriander seed. The full-bodied palate displays fantastic tension and restraint, with tightly wound apple and pear flavors and a satiny texture, finishing long and mineral laced."
