title: Carmen 2011 Gran Reserva El Refugio Vineyard Chardonnay (Casablanca & Leyda Valleys)
description: Early on this smells strained, like a haystack with brine. Give it time and it comes around, although it remains chunky in feel, with citrus and nectarine flavors. On the finish it's thick and heavy (14.4% ABV means weight and viscosity).
variety: Chardonnay
designation: Gran Reserva El Refugio Vineyard
