Russian River Valley Chardonnay
Russian River Valley, Sonoma County, California, USA
Pale lemon color with aromas of ripe fruits, citrus, nutty and flinty scents, aged in oak for 12 months. On the palate flavors of apple, peach and orange floral citrus, cinnamon notes, well balanced with acidity. Medium+ finish ending with nutty toasty spice, mineral and citrus notes.

A good Chardonnay with a candied lemon rind finish with descent length. This vintage Janet was still assistant wine maker.

Yellow fruit, apple, vanilla...too much oak for my taste over powers other notes.

Super solid Chardonnay. Only $35 and worth every penny. Crystalline yellow with a lime green tinge. Slightly hazy. Great nose of orange rind, lemon zest, essential oil, verbena, and creme brulee. Framed by subtle oak. Almost reminds me kistler Durrell
