A bright and fleshy Chardonnay from the Russian River Valley producer Baletto. Aromatics of sweet peach and apricot, nutmeg, and wet stone. The palate is lush and alive. Flavours of baked pear mingle with savoury herbs; there is a richness to the fruit; notes of lemon creme and ripe apricot lead into a weighty yet fresh finish.
