Harken Barrel Fermented Chardonnay 2018 Review
It’s like chewing on an oak stave and a roasted vanilla bean. This is some old school Chardonnay right here. If you dig the days of this oaky intensity, you're in luck. The acidity is bright and balances a bit, but one sip will last on the palate for a while.
