2009 Unoaked Chardonnay

This has become one of my favorite new wines that we craft. This 100% stainless steel fermented, no malo-lactic wine exhibits what chardonnay REALLY tastes like from the Russian River Valley. It has sweet aromas of tree-ripened white nectarines, Red Haven peaches, Gravenstein apples and citrus blossoms. Similar flavors of ripe stone fruits, guava, passion fruit and wet stone coat your palate. The part I love the most about this wine is the crisp acidity and clean long finish that make your mouth water for more. A great food wine that I thoroughly enjoyed until I ran out in early Fall!
