GOLD MEDAL: Sakura Wine Awards 93 POINTS & 5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
"Rich and opulent, the fragrant bouquet shows golden peach, pineapple, vanillin oak and brioche aromas, leading to a silky-smooth palate that's creamy and flavoursome. Upfront and delectably appealing." -Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
This Chardonnay is bold wine grown from some of the oldest vines in California. Gnarly Head’s untamed vines produce full-flavored grapes, abundant with aromas of mango, lemon-lime, and graham cracker. Flavors of Fuji apple, kiwi, and lemon-lime make this Chardonnay complex and layered with flavor. This bright and tropical wine boasts a medium body and rounded mouthfeel, with a long, clean finish for those who like bold wines with a little attitude.
Quality is consistent. Deeper bouquet and flavor than most Cali Zins. The Earth tones come thru beautifully about two years from Vintage. Wonderful
Red to contemplate on its own or with good food.
