Santa Barbara Winery Chardonnay 2013

The county's first modern winery consistently delivers value-priced yet solid bottlings like this. The nose is pear tart doused with a lemony sauce and flavors straddle an intriguingly tense line between chalky minerality on one side and citrus pith on the other. Score - 89.
