Tasting note

Notes of tropical fruit and butter, vanilla custard and hints of mineral grace the nose of this wine, produced from fruit grown on the unique volcanic white-ash soil of the Russian River Valley. Dry, medium-full bodied, it's rich and creamy in texture, yet retains freshness that is a perfect match for the lush flavours of lemon curd, sweet apple and pineapple. The mineral quality is subtly present on the palate, while nuances of warm baking spice linger on the tangy finish. Serve with pasta garnished with shrimp and scallops sautéed in olive oil and garlic. Score - 4.5 Stars (out of 5). (Susan Desjardins, winecurrent.com, Feb. 27, 2016)

This dry and straw yellow coloured white showcases a complex nose releasing woody, floral, fruity and mineral scents. You will be charmed with this full-bodied wine revealing a full-bodied texture and a long finish.

As featured in Taste Magazine, Spring 2013. In 1965 Rodney Strong was the first to plant Chardonnay what would later be named the Chalk Hill AVA. The chalky white soils impart a subtle mineral character to the fruit grown there. This wine has toasty vanilla and spice complexities with a creamy texture. Ripe apple, Meyer lemon, wet stone and spiced vanilla make this wine the perfect pairing for fish or chicken dishes as well as sipping perfection.
