| Notes | "Similar to the 2013 Anniversary Selection, the 2014 Russian River Valley Chardonnay was brought up all in oak. It has a fresh, lively style, yet also has solid richness and depth. Giving up notes of buttered citrus, toasted nuts, white flowers and tangerine, this medium-bodied, impeccably balanced, classy white can be drunk today or cellared for 4-6 years." (Wine Advocate) | |||
Additional Notes "This Chardonnay is striking in its ability to convey marshmallow roasting over a campfire. It's full-bodied and lush, its rich fruit core of apple and pear seemingly dressed in clarified butter. That richness, however, doesn't weigh down the palate; it finishes with refinement." (Wine Enthusiast) "Well done and very complete, with light cedary oak adding a nice dimension to the core of pear and peach flavors. Ends with a subtle aftertaste. Drink now. 3,400 cases made."
