It is very buttery with a little oak. Nice long finish. Tiny hint of pear. (2227 views) | | | Tasted by yotaiwan on 10/25/2010 & rated 90 points: Creamy and rich. but a little too much of the malalactic fermintation taste for me. (2573 views) | | | Tasted by spmulligan on 8/31/2009 & rated 93 points: The best white I tasted on my Napa trip. This glass had everything that I love about Chardonnay. Sooooooo silky. (2836 views) | | | Tasted by wino_tim on 4/15/2009 & rated 90 points: Rich and plush with delicious fuzzy peach and crushed white flower aromas that dive into a full bodied palate that features citrus and brown butter flavors. Good intensity, and medium-low acidity add to the velvety texture. (2726 views) |

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 Napa Valley Napa Valley Wineries and Wine (Napa Valley Vintners)Napa ValleySt. Helena |
