title: Loring Wine Company 2014 Sierra Mar Vineyard Chardonnay (Santa Lucia Highlands)
description: Lush in winemaker Brian Loring's preferred style, this wine shows roasted cashews, seared lemons and baked apples on the nose. There's a walnut-oil quality to the palate, which is chewy and fat but not overreaching, with touches of tonic, cinnamon and caramel.
variety: Chardonnay
designation: Sierra Mar Vineyard
