Chalk Hill, Chardonnay 2017, Sonoma Coast, California

Tasting Note: A chardonnay that has good fruit and bright flavors that would make it a great dinner party staple.

Pale-intensity lemon in color, this wine has a medium-intensity nose of green apple, white peach, clove baking spice, honeysuckle and orange blossom.

On the palate the dry, medium-bodied chardonnay has medium-intensity flavors suggested on the nose supported by medium acidity and completing with a lemon-citrus-infused, medium finish.

There is midpalate complexity with notes of ginger spice.

A chardonnay that would work well in mixed company or back-porch sitting with friends.
