Clos Pegase Mitsuko's Vineyard Chardonnay 2018 Review

If you like the old school style of Chardonnay, I'm talking extreme toasted oak and rich vanilla with high alcohol this is for you. It really soaks into your palate and doesn’t leave. It is tart and deep but with good acidity, so the burn of the alcohol is not as intense. This has dinner with the parents written all over it. It harkens back to a time when this style was the norm.
