Winery Notes: "A vibrant Chardonnay from vineyards in cooler climates of California. Chardonnay is well known for its characteristic fresh apple fruit aromas and rounded, rich flavors. Weather during 2011 harvest provided ideal growing conditions for lush, yet perfectly balanced fruit."

My Review: A very sweet, apple-like smelling wine. The nose was very vibrant, like candy and other brightly sweet scents. the taste actually was kind-of spicy, and had a strong kick, while refreshing. This wine was very interesting with the contrasts of sweet and spicy. Definitely a wine worth trying, but just for exactly that. Wouldn't plan on buying a bottle myself, even though it has the name "Arnold Palmer", which would usually appeal because I love the sweet tea/lemonade drinks.
