Chardonnay

Chardonnay Wine Details
Price: $20.00 per bottle

Description: This rich, full-blown Chardonnay doesn't hold back. Abundant tropical fruit flavors and voluptuous texture are typical of Chardonnay from the Los Alamos wine region, and we embrace it. The 2002 harkens back to our 2000 vintage that scored 90 points in Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate. The wine shows the flavors of quince, pineapple, lemon, coconut, butter and mineral tones. A complete barrel fermentation (38% new French oak) and malolactic fermentation gives rise to a creamy texture, flavors that are expansive, and a long finish. Nine months in French oak provides a toasty vanilla component.
