($32) Pale straw-yellow with golden highlights. Butter and vanilla notes complement the aromas of banana, candied orange and pineapple, with a sexy jasmine accent providing lift. Very ripe chardonnay, hinting at some residual sweetness but with noteworthy intensity and underlying structure to the ripe banana and pineapple flavors. This smooth, shapely chardonnay shows terrific balance and more restraint than usual, with less tropical fruit character than past bottlings.

charming, the color is just like "sunshines"..somewhat lack of elegance in comparison to a fine- made burgundian chardonnay...(too much wood here..)but very interesting when i tried it the third day of the same uncorked bottle..
