Ferrari Carano Chardonnay Reserve Carneros 750mL
| Vintage: | 2021 |

| Description: | It would be hard to hear the name Ferrari-Carano and not think of world-class wine. From a small, 30-acre plot of grapes purchased in 1979, to todays 1,500 acres in six different appelations, Ferrari-Carano owns some of the finest properties in all of California. Their wines are recognized by the critics and are listed on the menus of some of the finest restaurants in the world. While tasting through the current lineup at a recent luncheon, it was their Reserve Chardonnay that truly garnered the limelight. Coming from their property in Carneros, the long, cool growing season matures the fruit slowly, giving it plenty of time to gain in richness and depth while retaining a higher acidity and tighter structure than fruit in warmer climate. Combine this with the wine's aging in new oak, and you get a Chardonnay that entices with aromas of vanilla, butterscotch, spiced pear, graham cracker, and toasted marshmallow, followed by elegant, upfront ripe flavors of Bartlet pear, white peach, apricot, apple, caramel, and brown sugar on the finish. |
