The 2012 Cellar Reserve Chardonnay flaunts a toasty nose replete with peaches and pineapple notes plus white blossom accents. Light to medium-bodied, the very elegant palate has some oak poking through a bit, but the wine has the fruit intensity to stand up and hold through a long finish. It needs 6-12 more months for the oak to marry and should be great. Drink 2014 to 2018
