Testarossa 2012 Sierra Madre Vineyard Chardonnay (Santa Maria Valley)

Country: US / California
Variety: Chardonnay
Winery: Testarossa / Sierra Madre Vineyard

Vanilla-soaked French toast and caramelized apples promise a butter bomb in this Testarossa take on the historic Sierra Madre Vineyard in the Santa Maria Valley. Once sipped, there is a surprising level of soda-like acidity, and a steadily emerging flavor profile that ranges from cream soda to squeezed lime.
