Chehalem Chardonnay Ian's Reserve 2014

92 VM

"Bright straw-yellow. Aromas of fresh pear tangerine honey and pungent flowers on the in tensely perfumed nose.  Seamless and penetrating on the palate showing an impressive blend of heft and vibrancy to the ripe mineral-tinged orchard and citrus fruit and buttered toast flavors.  Closes with strong energy and lift and a persistent note of bitter pear skin." - Josh Raynolds, Vinous Media
