La Crema Russian River Chardonnay 2015
Russian River, Sonoma County, California, United StatesYou expect the Russian River fruit to project more than Sonoma, and you both sense and taste the intense Meyer lemon and nectarine notes. The lees and weight are well adjusted to be not overbearing. If anything, the honey hangs over the mid-palate weight making it more New World chardonnay than Euro but it finishes balanced and vibrant. Ready to drink now with baked halibut or mahi mahi.Tasted: 15 February 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:ON | $39.95 | 750ml | LCBO |
