Alma Rosa 2015 El Jabali Vineyard Chardonnay (Sta. Rita Hills)

Country: US / El Jabali Vineyard
Variety: Chardonnay California
Winery: Alma Rosa / Sta. Rita Hills

El Jabali—the home vineyard of vintners Richard and Thekla Sanford—delivers a Chardonnay loaded with fresh lemongrass, nectarine and Gravenstein apple scents. There is a pithy grip to the palate, where apple and Anjou pear flavors converge with lime and grapefruit tartness.
