title: Chamisal Vineyards 2012 Califa Estate Chardonnay (Edna Valley)
description: “Califa” is a Native American word meaning the prettiest one, and that's what winemaker Fintan du Fresne delivers in this estate-grown wine. The lovely nose is spun tightly around citrus, white roses and limestone, while the well-integrated palate offers a touch of jasmine followed by apple elements that arise in the midpalate. Serve with shrimp paella.
variety: Chardonnay
designation: Califa Estate
