Sonoma-Cutrer
Russian River Ranches Chardonnay
Sonoma Coast, Sonoma County, California, USA
One of the best Chardonnays that I've ever had. Don't make your judgement from the first sip. Instead, wait until it opens up with your meal. You're sure to be delighted!

Very nice and classically Californian. Oak forward with cream followed by pear and a balancing touch of citrus. A little oakier than my favorites but still nice. You’ll like more if that’s your style.

More oak than wine. Bit salty finish. Yawn, is it the hours at the airport or the “excitement” of the wine.

Much too cold to start- much better as it warmed a bit. Low oak, medium body, lots of pear & apple with some citrus there as well. Seems on the higher alcohol side. Not bad- a mid-level+ wine.
