Cakebread's 2020 Chardonnay Reserve was entirely barrel fermented, with aging taking place in a mix of French oak (33% new), concrete and larger, neutral oak. It features gentle pineapple, lime and custardy notes on the nose, while the palate is medium-bodied, plump and appealing. A tasty, lip-smacking Chardonnay, if only this had more intensity of flavor and length on the finish...
