FAR NIENTE Chardonnay, Napa Valley 2013

This Chardonnay comes from Coombsville, a cool growing region in Napa Valley. It wine was aged 10 months sur lie in French oak (59% new) with the rest once-used. As it opens, it delivers aromas of pear, red delicious apple. On the palate this continues to pump out Granny Smith apple, pear and a nice vanilla cream finish. Steely minerality is present with a lovely mouthfeel. This is done in the refreshing style. (Best 2015-2022) - November, 2015 (OB)
