| Community Tasting Notes (average 95 pts. and median of 95 pts. in 1 note) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by johnwine on 11/17/2005 & rated 95 points: The color of this wine is a clear, honey colored, golden hue which indicates the richness of the wine to follow. The nose is resplendent with notes of honey, fig, pear and apple. The taste follows the suggestion of the nose with flavors of ripe apples, citrus, fig, pear and honey. The acid still frames the fruit and the wine is magnificent. There is a long finish with fruit, honey and hazelnuts. (1363 views) |

Read more about NewtonChardonnay 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 North CoastThe North Coast American Viticultural Area (AVA) in California, covering more than three million acres, includes Napa, Sonoma, Mendocino and Lake counties, and portions of Marin and Solano counties.
