ARBOR CREST COLUMBIA CHARDONNAY 2009

Here again is fine, rich, ripe fruit, mostly pears and peaches and bananas, layered and textured. The flavors build through a full, delicious middle, with some nice creaminess from barrel fermentation. Whats missing is the pleasing toast of new oak, which would etch the fruit into a bit more focus. A hint of residual sweetness rounds out the finish. Best Buy.
