Lots going on in this spicy expression of Carneros fruit, with bright apple, mixed tropical fruit and nutmeg aromas and flavors. Bright acidity and a creamy midpalate add a stony character to the texture, and the spice driven finish adds some white peach touches. Well executed, stylized Chardonnay.
