title: Valley of the Moon 2012 Chardonnay (Sonoma Coast)
description: Oak barrels give this wine an edge of buttered toast and butterscotch, but it's not heavy, and the oak is perfectly in keeping with the underlying orange, mango and nectarine fruit. The finish is soft and honeyed, with a firm minerality that lends structure. It's yummy for drinking now.
