Cinnabar 2008 Skyland Vineyard Chardonnay (Santa Cruz Mountains)

Country: US / Skyland Vineyard
Variety: Chardonnay California
Winery: Cinnabar / Santa Cruz Mountains

A ponderous Chardonnay, marked by excessive new oak flavors and the heavy hand of the winemaker. Shows pineapple, pear and tangerine flavors, but the barrel and malolactic additions soften and sweeten them.
