Big Basin Vineyards Chardonnay Coastview Vineyard 2016

This wine is aromatic, vibrant, and lasting. Its aromas and flavors of ripe apple, light cream and earth accents should pair this well with shellfish in a light cream sauce.

Lime skins, grapefruit, ash, lily, chives and dairy aromas make for a unique and dynamic entry to the nose of this bottling from a vineyard high in the mountains near Chalone. There's a grainy tightness to the palate, where Meyer lemon pith, almond oil and herbal elements battle for attention.
