Tasting notes
The 2012 Chardonnay Mountain Estate Vineyard shows notes of white peach and a touch of wet rocks in an elegant medium to full-bodied style with hints of poached pear, brioche and honeysuckle. There is good acidity and a natural exuberance to the wine. Drink it over the next 3-4 years.

Fisher's 2012 Chardonnay Mountain Estate Vineyard is flat out gorgeous. Lightly honeyed aromatics meld into wild flowers, almonds and dried apricots, but it is really the wine's viscous texture that impresses above all else.
Green pears, melon and apricots are all very much alive in the 2012 Chardonnay Mountain Estate Vineyard. The 2012 is bright and articulate in the glass, with additional layers of volume and pure texture next to the 2011. A beautiful, expressive wine, the 2012 is also full of promise.
