Rusack, Chardonnay, Santa Barbara County

Transparent gold color. Nose brings loads of sweet nectarines and pineapples, with hints of oak and honey. The palate is full-bodied, sharp with high acidity, extremely creamy, and flowing with loads of pineapple, lemons, limes, kiwi, orange zest, cinnamon toast, brown sugar, and hints of baking spices and honey. The finish is lovely with food and coming into a nice balance. Went very nicely with a Sunday salmon, crab, bean, salad, corn feast off the grill, next to a Provencal …

Fantastic nose - wood, cream, toast and gooseberry. Taste - crisp, buttery,passionfruit, and vanilla.

Rich, smooth and ripe. Very drinkable for the price with lots of power, little precision.
