Stag's Leap Wine Cellars
Napa Valley Chardonnay
Stags Leap Manor, as it was called in the 1920s, was known as one of the prominent country retreats in the Napa Valley at a time when resort and spa business was big. Pale lemon stone fruit and citrus aromas and toasty yeasty notes. On the palate melon, pineapple and pear, fresh & crisp with notes of oak, a bit creamy. Long finish with wet stone and mineral character, well balanced, stays crisp on ending. Nice!

Amber color, fruity with hint of spice on the nose. Smooth citrus finish.

Jun 21st, 2020Great alternative to Rombauer , while still being very well done - much less oaky , but no less bright and fruity
