title: Stephen Ross 2011 Bien Nacido Vineyard Chardonnay (Santa Maria Valley)
description: It's hard to define minerality in a wine, but this Chardonnay has it. It tastes and feels like a lick of chalky stone. That's on top of and below the intricate pineapple, orange and Meyer lemon fruit that's so delicious, and finishes so dry and spicy.
variety: Chardonnay
designation: Bien Nacido Vineyard
