Chamisal Unoaked Chardonnay Central Coast 2010

Exploding with fresh, crisp fruit, the nose combines tropical pineapple, mango and banana with the citrus notes of lemon, lime and grapefruit--a testament to the diversity of vineyard sources. The palate bursts with a medley of fruit, driven by the crisp Fuji apple character and underlying minerality of the estate grapes. Fresh and vivacious, this wine exhibits a dense mid-palate, proving that with the right grapes and winemaking, Chardonnay does not need oak or malolactic fermentation to shine.

Parker 89  "The 2010 Stainless Chardonnay exhibits fresh, lively notes of lemon butter and pineapple followed by a richly fruity, medium-bodied, clean, naked Chardonnay."
