title: Santa Ema 2013 Reserve Chardonnay (Leyda Valley)
description: Pear and melon aromas get a boost from the barrel, but ultimately the nose on this Chardonnay is simple. In the mouth, things run smooth. Barrel-related flavors of spice, hickory and toast dominate white-fruit notes, while the finish is oaky but balanced in feel.
variety: Chardonnay
designation: Reserve
