2010 Napa Valley Chardonnay
- Tasting Notes
- Pale golden color in the glass, with the
faintest hint of green belying its youth, this Chardonnay opens
with rich and intense aromas of lemon, lime leaf, citrus flowers,
and a touch of honey before moving into spicy pie crust and a hint
of mascarpone creaminess - all topped with a nice flinty
finish. The citrus trend continues on the palate with a
firm acidity and tropical star fruit. This wine has excellent
mouthfeel with big full texture and a mouthcoating creaminess that
nicely complements the white stone fruit (nectarine and peach) and
slight green apple fruit flavors. On the finish, look
for a pleasantly subtle marzipan nuttiness.
