Tom Gore Vineyards Chardonnay 2013: Big apple, lemon, peach, vanilla, bite of banana; wonderfully cutting acidity, suitably restrained oak, half-pat of butter in the middle; rich, smooth, enjoyable on the palate; nicely hits spot between savagely austere chablis and unctuously big-butter, over-oaked Cal cabs; good effort from Sonoma farm family. $15
