2011 Joseph Phelps "Freestone Vineyards" Sonoma Coast Chardonnay

*A Top 100 Cellar Selection of 2013* What a roll Phelps has been on these past few cool vintages in this, its far Sonoma Coast vinyard. The wine is bright in mouthwatering acidity, and tantalizing, with a subtle vein of lime, golden mango, orange zest and honeysuckle. Firm minerals are enriched by toasty oak. The alcohol is moderate. As delicious as this wine is, it should develop nicely over the next 5-6 years.
