Another top tier value is the 2014 Chardonnay Highland, which comes all from the Santa Lucia Highlands and was mostly barrel-fermented and aged in 25% new oak. It has notable richness and toastiness, with lots of caramelized apple, crushed rock and spice aromatics. Medium-bodied, pure, balanced and with bright acidity, it's a high quality Chardonnay to enjoy over the coming 2-3 years.
