title: Chateau Ste. Michelle 2012 Chardonnay (Columbia Valley (WA))
description: This is a crisp, clean and nicely-structured Chardonnay, fermented in a mix of new and neutral oak, along with some stainless steel. A bit beer-like and yeasty at first, it opens into pleasing flavors of grapefruit and pineapple, with just the right amount of acidity.
variety: Chardonnay
