Mer Soleil Santa Lucia Highlands Reserve Chardonnay 2013

Golden and sun-kissed, the 2013 vintage opens up with evocativescents of lemon and peach, layered with the subtle toasted notes of freshly baked bread. The palate is full and fresh, with ripe flavors of fruit blossoms and a hint of mango balanced by natural,vibrant acidity. Medium to full-bodied, the wine has a finish that is lengthy but never heavy, its mix of oak, butter and fruit characteristics blending seamlessly and leaving a harmonious,lingering impression.
