Mi Sueño 'Los Carneros' Chardonnay 2014 Review

There’s no question that this is a big, Napa Chardonnay, but the nose has a softness to it that is quite appealing: ripe red apple and pear, vanilla candle wax, and cinnamon spice. It’s richer, with even riper, sweeter, creamier apple pie-like fruit and spice on the palate, making it less restrained than might be desired but clearly high-quality and complete overall. Has the potential to please both New and Old World wine lovers and likely will improve over time.
