Domaine Eden Santa Cruz Mountains Chardonnay 2012

$26.99

This more affordable cousin to the Mount Eden brand is just as good, though different. It presents dairy aromas of brie cheese rind and yogurt but in a deliciously approachable way, with diced chives, caramelized pear and citronella elements. The palate shows tremendous energy, with lots of lime and lemon pith, but also a sour-cream richness. Wine Enthusiast

Pre-baked Apple pie that you're just putting into the oven. Sour apple, pear, dough and cinnamon spice. Macadamia nut in the mouth. Holding true to my belief that 2013 is the best Chard vintage in the recent run

Lovely, ripe and minerally, balanced and all elements well integrated with poised acidity. Favorite of the lineup especially for the price.

60% fruit from Mount Eden, 40% from Domaine Eden, with the same vinification as the estate wine. Racy and immediately attractive

One of the best domestic chards ive had. Excellent minerality, earth and acid. Drinks like a 100$ bottle.

Bright lightly oaked Chardonnay. Definitely worth another drink.

Notes of lemon, pear and finishes with a hint of mint. Medium-bodied, finishes thin. Disappointing. There are better values to be had.
