Bien Nacido Vineyard Chardonnay

Bien Nacido Vineyard Chardonnay Wine Details
Price:

Description: 2003 started off with uncharacteristically warm 80- degree weather in January, fooling some of our vineyards into coming out of dormancy two weeks to two months early. As the season progressed, the warm weather did not relent and most of the fruit ripened within a small time frame. The early bud break allowed the grapes to achieve record hang time resulting in wines that show great depth of flavor, color and richness. appley fruit with very sweet oak and a scant touch of minerals. Its obvious richness makes it thoroughly enjoyable now.” 92 points
