Stonestreet Chardonnay 2001
Sonoma County, California, United StatesBig Burgundian garlic lees, toasted spice nose with hints of vanilla and floral green apples mark this mix of Sonoma Valley, Carneros, Russian River and Alexander Mountain Estate fruit. Fermentation in 100% French oak, sur lie ageing and monthly stirring makes for rich, round, fat, slightly soft chardonnay with an oily texture but well balanced. Lots of smoky, buttery, spicy vanilla, green apple, garlic, mineral flavours. Big and bold but not without some finesse.Tasted: 07 April 2005Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:| BC | $42.95 | 750ml | Speculative - Summit Fine Wines |
