This represents the best of what the Laughlin Family Vineyard has to offer. The 2009 is one of the most expressive efforts to date. Both bright and rich, aromas of lemon meringue, cinnamon spice, and ripe fig combine with mineral notes of river stone and granite. While it has a creamy entry and great stain on the palate, it nicely maintains the vibrant acidity of a classic Russian River Chardonnay.
