| Community Tasting Notes (average 93.7 pts. and median of 94 pts. in 6 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by Mr T on 1/22/2017: lovely mature chard....yum (672 views) | | | Tasted by Jmb4263 on 2/17/2015 & rated 92 points: Very different in profile from the later years (2010, 2011) with significantly more oak. Oak has integrated well into the wine and its showing very well at the moment. Full bodied with hints of oak and fuller fruit but delicious for those who enjoy a more full body, older chard. Drinking well now but could go for a few more years. (902 views) | | | Tasted by HBvino on 11/27/2014 & rated 95 points: Wonderful hints of apple tart. No butter and not too crisp. Rare Chard outing for us and this is one we will definitely return to. (969 views) | | | Tasted by Mr T on 12/3/2013: this is tasty stuff..very nice (1149 views) | | | Tasted by Mr T on 5/7/2012: Not sure I got all of MM's tastes below, but this is a big full Cali chard that also has enough acidity to keep it interesting ..Sue and I really loved this (1546 views) | | | Tasted by MattMauldin on 6/3/2010 & rated 94 points: Unfiltered-cloudy golden-straw. Bright aromas of pungent cheese, green apple, caramel, and butterscotch. Crisp flavors of caramel-covered red and green apples, pear, ginger, and fine cheeses. Full and big, but with plenty of acid and mineral notes. Glides across the palate like wax in a lava lamp. Closes with tart malic acid and baking spice- superb! (1587 views) |
| Seavey Vineyard 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 Napa Valley Napa Valley Wineries and Wine (Napa Valley Vintners)Napa ValleySt. Helena |
