Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
An outstanding wine is the 2015 Chardonnay Belle Terre Vineyard. This wine, which gets the full monty of malolactic fermentation, offers up notes of tropical fruits such as pineapple and mango, has the telltale honeysuckle, crushed rock minerality and a fresh, medium to full-bodied style. It’s a beauty and fairly priced. Drink it over the next 2-4 years.
