2014 Tyler Winery "La Rinconada Vineyard" Chardonnay, Santa Barbara County, California
Elegant and refined, this Chardonnay opens with aromas of Meyer lemon, green apple, and hints of chamomile. On the palate, it is both precise and layered, delivering notes of crisp pear, white peach, and a touch of almond. Bright acidity and a stony minerality carry through to a long, clean, and refreshing finish.
