The 2011 Chardonnay from Chappellet displays a gorgeous deep golden color. Offering an array of mixed tropical fruits and ripe pear followed by vanilla, lemon peel, blossoms, mineral and a toasty character. It shows wonderful balance with a rich and creamy texture that carries over onto the finish where some vanilla and warm toasty notes make an encore. It's hard to describe this as anything else other than delicious and it will certainly please many readers who enjoy a chardonnay on the modern side. (Best 2013-2018) - February, 2013 (JD)
