About Talley Vineyards
Before the Talley family made wine, they grew peppers, avocados, zucchini and more. In fact, in the Arroyo Grande Valley, the Talley’s have more of a name for vegetable growing than winemaking. The balance, however, is swaying, if not shifting, as the family wine operation, started in 1982, has continued to pick up steam.
2010 Talley Vineyards Chardonnay Oliver's Vineyard Edna Valley
Producer: Talley Vineyards
Style: White Wine
Grape Type: Chardonnay
Origin: California
Region: Central Coast
92 Points | International Wine Cellar , November/December 2012
Light gold. Potent aromas of poached pear, honey and lees, with a suave undercurrent of anise and iodine; smells like a really good white Burgundy. Chewy, tightly focused orchard fruit flavors are braced by a tangy lemon zest quality and become spicier with air. Finishes with excellent clarity, focus and lingering smokiness.
