WINE DESCRIPTION
Amapola Creek Jos. Belli Vineyards Chardonnay is a white wine produced by Amapola Creek Winery. The grapes are sourced from the Jos. Belli Vineyard in the Russian River Valley appellation, which is known for its bold, expressive wines. The vineyard features well-drained soils and a cooler climate, which allows for slow ripening and optimal flavor development. The winemaking process involves careful barrel fermentation and aging in French oak, resulting in a rich and complex wine with notes of baked apples, vanilla, and toasty butterscotch from oak. This Chardonnay is a perfect example of the classic California style, with a perfect balance of fruit and oak flavors.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Amapola Creek Jos.Belli Vineyards Chardonnay is a full-bodied and well-structured white wine with notes of ripe stone fruits and citrus blossom. On the palate, it is creamy and balanced with a rich texture and a long finish. The flavors of ripe peach and baked apple are balanced by notes of butterscotch and toast from oak. A great choice for pairing with cream-based seafood dishes or white mould cheeses.
