USA, Napa Valley
Chardonnay
Price category: $$$
Description
Amongst the varietals planted to Carneros, Chardonnay has proved to be of the highest quality for 2018. With winds blowing in from the San Pablo Bay, Carneros temperatures are generally cooler and more moderate than regions further north, making it ideal for cultivating cool-loving Chardonnay grapes. The fruit for this Reserve Chardonnay is sourced from a single vineyard in the appellation, the family’s newest estate property. AROMAS & FLAVORS: Full bodied with aromas and flavors of ripe apple, baked pear, and creamy caramel.
