2013 Scherrer Helfer Vineyard Russian River Valley Chardonnay

14.5% alc., 160 cases, $48. · Moderate golden yellow hue in the glass. Lovely scent of peach, pear, lemon drop, buttery brioche, vanilla and floral bouquet. Bright and lush flavors of lemon, peach, and complimentary oak, with a welcome cut of acidity adding vibrancy and producing a palate cleansing, citrus-fueled finish. Similar to the 2012 vintage, but with a slightly better marriage of fruit and oak, and more riveting fruit flavors. Score: 94. Reviewed November 22, 2015
