title: Lucienne 2014 Smith Vineyard Chardonnay (Santa Lucia Highlands)
description: Toasty oak kicks off the nose of this bottling, and then come touches of vanilla, lemon cookie, flint, buttered toast and almost marshmallow. Flavors are quite smoky, with roasted almond and sea salt, but the grippy texture is the most intriguing part.
variety: Chardonnay
designation: Smith Vineyard
