Gallo Sonoma Chardonnay 1996
Russian River, Sonoma County, California, United StatesA new vintage, a new label and more specifically fruit from the Russian River appellation is the story here. First, the 1996 has more fruit intensity than the 1995 with big peach, apple, butter and honey aromas, and flavours. Much better acidity and balance with good texture and length that will help it age gracefully. Very fine quality with a price that will undoubtedly terrify the competition.Tasted: 01 September 1997Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:| BC | $14.95 | 750ml |
