LA CREMA CHARDONNAY 2009

A bit restrained, with leafy, green apple, honeysuckle, mint and lime flavors that combine to offer complexity. Excellent value. .

From this red-hot AVA, this exciting Chard rocks with bold, penetrating fruit. You can taste the cool ocean tang, which coaxed out apples and citrus, while winemaker bells and whistles, such as barrel fermentation and sur lie aging, provide welcome complexities. They completed the malolactic fermentation, which softens the wine a bit but makes it buttery and creamy.
