Sonoma-Cutrer Russian River Ranches Chardonnay 2006

Russian River, Sonoma County, California, United StatesButtery, nutty, honey lees, floral, creamy vanilla, and baked green apple and pear skin aromas with a touch of butterscotch. Rich, round, slightly fat and oily texture but good finesse with moderate acidity and alcohol. Spicy, creamy, nutty lees, green apple skin, buttery, honey and vanilla flavours. Good complexity but a bit short and light. Very solid styling and good value.Tasted: 08 January 2009Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
