This is a solid effort from Caparzo. The wine is an intriguing blend of 75% Chardonnay, 20% Sav Blanc and 5% Gewurtztraminer. The Chard has aromas of honeydew melon, rose water, saffron, and Bartlett pear. There are flavors of buttered popcorn, vanilla cream, poached pear and oak. Nice weight and richness to this novel wine. (Best 2016-2024) - January, 2016 (OB)
