Lovely rich palate of apricot and yellow apple with a somewhat oily texture and a persistent finish of spiced peach and honey. I'm a sucker for this style, I really must drink more California Chardonnay... (354 views) | | | Tasted by FoodAndDINK on 7/9/2022 & rated 92 points: Very nice unoaked Chardonnay. Fruit forward with tastes of Mellon and honey. Maybe slightly short finish, but still very enjoyable overall.

| Varner Producer websiteChardonnay The Chardonnay GrapeUSAAmerican wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.California2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson Central Coasthttp://www.ccwinegrowers.org/links.html
