2017 CARTE BLANCHE UV VINEYARD CHARDONNAY "These Carte Blanche releases are made by the incredibly talented Helen Keplinger. Her 2017 Chardonnay UV Vineyard offers a beautiful stone fruit and citrus quality as well as more Chablis-like minerality, oyster shell and fresh cream notes. Beautifully balanced, incredibly pure, and vibrant on the palate, it’s a no brainer purchase that’s up with the crème de la crème of Chardonnay from California. It will keep for over a decade." 96 Points
