The 2015 Russian River Valley Reserve Chardonnay has a beautiful light straw color with a golden edge. The wine opens with exotic sandalwood and cardamom with toasted bread, lemon zest, green apple, nougat, stone fruit, and mineral with savory notes of smoke and lush cream and lovely tropical fruit. The palate is weighty with vanilla, toast, stone fruit, pineapple, citrus, Granny Smith apple, and red delicious apple with hints of nutmeg and smoke.
This Reserve is rich with mouthwatering acidity, good structure, and a long finish of sweet tropical fruit and grilled pineapple. It reflects the best of what Russian River Valley fruit can offer: rich, complex wines with depth and agility and a freshness that wakes up the palate.
