Talley Vineyards
Rosemary's Vineyard Chardonnay
Arroyo Grande Valley, Central Coast, California, USA
Light yellow in color with a golden hue.
Nose of citrus, limes, green apples, light peaches, light oak, wax, light vanilla and minerals.
Medium-bodied with medium plus acidity. Crisp and refreshing.
Dry on the palate with limes, green apples, light grapefruits, light oak, spices, earth, herbs and light vegetables.
Tangy finish with limes and grapefruits.
This is a delicious Chardonnay from California. Spicy and complex, with light oak notes to compliment it. Tangy and interesting.
Nicely balanced, and neither tart nor bitter, which is how I like it.
Needs 30 minutes of airtime to open up properly, and better when not very cold.
This Single vineyard Chardonnay feels young and fresh, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly. Would be nice to revisit it in 3 years and see how it evolves.
Fruit forward and elegant. Easy drinking and good by itself or with food.
Aged on its lees in (30% new) French Oak barrels for 14 months. Vegan and unfintered. A small production of only 6,600 bottles.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
92 points.
$75.
