2010 Franciscan Cuvee Sauvage Chardonnay, Carneros, Napa Valley, CA, $36 (S) – Rating 91
An enticing nose of apple, pear and Creme Fraiche with notes of citrus and honeycomb. A lush mouth-feel filled with flavors of apple, pear, ripe pineapple and baking spice with hints of oaky vanilla and buttery cream. Well balanced enough to avoid the butter-bomb label.
