Jayson (Pahlmeyer) Chardonnay 2015 Review
This Napa Chardonnay has a striking golden color and is rich and weighty, but very complex and savory at the same time. It's a powerful wine that doesn't need to assert its dominance. The flavors are more spiced than fruity, and you might catch hints of smoked vanilla and flint. This is a great special occasion bottle. If you're a Chardonnay lover, you'll be all over it. If you don't usually like Chardonnay, this is a wine that could change your mind.
