2013 Ceritas "Peter Martin Ray" Santa Cruz Mountains Chardonnay

The 2013 Chardonnay Peter Martin Ray Vineyard shows the more phenolic intensity of the Santa Cruz Mountains in its sense of structure. Sage, mint, dried apricot, dried peach and slate are all nicely delineated in the glass. Delicate yet also powerful, the 2013 offers striking contrast between its elements. (AG)
