Big Basin Coastview Vineyard Chardonnay 2014
Region: Mt. Harlan, Central Coast, California
Variety: White Wine
Rating: 90.0

Relative to the 2013 vintage, the 2014 possesses lifted floral aromatics with more verve and minerality. The percentage of new French oak was reduced slightly (only 2 out of 9 barrels) which enhances the transparency to the expressive Coastview fruit. The resulting wine is fully integrated with a concentration on the mid palate that is impressive.
