2013 FANTESCA CHARDONNAY
Brilliant light straw in color with wide open aromatics, this Chardonnay is one of our best. The nose is of crisp Fuji apples, a hint of citrus and beautifully integrated, toasty French oak used only as an accent. I also get a slight mineral note in the nose, which we don’t often see in California wines. Classic Chardonnay. True varietal character continues on the palate. Lush, soft, juicy, pure clean flavors of fresh apple, pear and a touch of mineral and toast dance in the mouth. Very well balanced and flat out delicious. Enjoy!

2012 ALL GREAT THINGS "DUTY"
The 2012 All Great Things shows off its delicious vintage nicely. It is a deep garnet, black cherry red color with blackberry, currants and cedar-like aromas.Nice ripeness across the palate, good structure for ageability and lovely acidity at this stage. This is a medium-plus bodied wine with luxurious, soft textural tannins. Tasty now but will also benefit from further aging.
