Even better than the Chardonnay The Limit, the 2013 Chardonnay Top Cream has fabulous purity and freshness in its white peach, white flower, citrus blossom and subtle mineral-laced bouquet. Medium-bodied, lively and fresh, yet with terrific fruit and texture, this classic Chardonnay was barrel fermented and aged nine months, on lees, in 50% new French oak. It's called Top Cream due to the vineyard's 3-4 foot layer of greyish white top soil. Enjoy this beauty anytime over the coming 4-5 years.
