The 2012 Chardonnay gives warm apple tart and lemon curd notes with nuances of lightly browned toast, almonds and acacia honey. Medium-bodied and crisp with a good amount of expressive apple and stone fruit flavors, it has a medium to long nutty finish. Drink it now to 2015. Importers: Vignobles LVDH USA; tel.
