title: Saxon Brown 2012 Hyde Vineyard Chardonnay (Carneros)
description: Subtle fruit and baking spice aromas lead to expansive peach, pear and fig flavors riding on a wave of fresh, crisp acidity that keeps this lively through the finish, even though the texture is quite lush and creamy. The wine is almost a meal in itself, but will make a grand pairing with rich seafood dishes or even a cheese course. Delicious now through at least 2018.
