Dragonette 2017 Duvarita Vineyard Chardonnay (Santa Barbara County)
There's an intriguing, almost Sauvignon Blanc-like quality to this bottling, beginning with aromas of guava peel, lanolin and a hint of toasted nuts. The palate is creamy and smooth, carrying flavors of jasmine and more guava, with a slight hint of butter toward the finish. Matt Kettmann
