2012 CAKEBREAD "RESERVE" CHARDONNAY, NAPA VALLEY

From Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate, "The 2012 Chardonnay Reserve increases the amount of oak (100% barrel-fermentation and 15 months in new French oak), resulting in copious notes of vanillin and spice box intermixed with pineapple, pear and white currant characteristics. It is a more serious and ambitious Chardonnay to drink over it first 3-5 years of life."
