Winemaker's Notes:

 This Chardonnay has brightly layered aromas of lemon zest and wet stone with subtle notes of white flowers. On the palate this wine is delicate with citrus and mineral flavors that lead into a clean finish.

This Chardonnay is a perfect complement to grilled mahi mahi or steamed lobster with chive butter.
