Aromas of ripe yellow peach, melon, and chamomile all framed by freshly baked pie crust. The palate is bright with flavors of nectarine, followed by a subtle spice, and lively acidity. The finish leaves you wanting another sip.
Our favorite Joy of Cooking pairings for this wine include Butter Chicken, Fettuccine Alfredo, and Zucchini and Goat Cheese Tarts.
The fruit for this wine comes from vineyards in the Carneros region owned by the Rombauer family and select growers including the Sangiacomo family, long-term grower partners who have farmed this land for three generations.
100% Chardonnay aged for 9 months in American and French oak (30% new)
Wine Enthusiast Review:
Butter, oak and vanilla flavors dominate the aroma and flavor of this full-bodied, heavily oaked wine. It has a dessert-like quality that is honeyed on the palate and lingers sweetly on the finish. For fans of this bold style, it's a big win. -J.G.
