Napa Valley Chardonnay

Napa Valley Chardonnay Wine Details
Price: $45.00 per bottle

Description: The 2002 Chardonnay was harvested from the fertile bench lands of the cool Russian River Valley. Located southeast of Graton and due west of Santo Rosa, the twenty-three year-old vineyard cropped at 1.5 tons/acre. Aromas of white peach rise from this elegant and crisp Chardonnay, while pear and citrus notes linger on the palate. Malo-lactic fermentation was purposely avoided in order to maintain the delicate acid structure. Barrel fermentation in twenty percent new French oak gives the wine a graceful mid-palate.
