generous velvety tannins and lively acidity on the rich palate

The mineral and tar character with hints of white pepper is at the forefront of the nose here

Impressive richness and clarity of red and dark berries

2018 | Paul Lato 'It's All Good' Talley Oliver's Vineyard Chardonnay | Edna Valley Vinedo de los Vientos new leatherBrought up in slightly more new oak (75%), the 2018 Chardonnay It's All Good Talley Oliver's Vineyard comes from the cooler Edna Valley, just south of San Luis Obispo. White peach, subtle pineapple, and spice notes all emerge from the glass, and it's a rich, layered, opulent Chardonnay that leans on its fruit and texture, yet stays balanced and elegant, with terrific freshness. 94 Pts Jeb Dunnuck
