Robert Craig Winery
Gap's Crown Vineyard Chardonnay
Just had this with some sushi, went great!! Robert Craig has been a pioneer in mountain vineyard development for over 30 years. During the 1980s, he directed vineyard & winery development on Mount Veeder and debuted his wines in 1992. Straw yellow with aromas of stone fruits and spice. A rich offering with flavors of crisp Apple and pear with a touch of orange citrus zest, buttery. Well balanced with big lively acidity the wine lingers with some minerality on the ending. This wine is all about the acidity.
