Ponzi Vineyards Chardonnay Reserve 2015 (93 VA)

“Light bright yellow. Fresh pear, peach and tangerine on the highly perfumed nose; hints of fennel and toasted brioche gain strength with air. Pliant and juicy in the mouth, offering intense, mineral-inflected orchard and pit fruit flavors that become more energetic as the wine opens up. Finishes impressively long and precise, delivering outstanding energy and lingering mineral and pear nectar notes.”
