WINE DESCRIPTION

This Chardonnay is known for its balanced acidity and creamy texture, making it a perfect pairing for seafood, poultry, and creamy pasta dishes.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Paul Hobbs Ross Station Estate Chardonnay is an excellent example of Sonoma Coast Chardonnay.It has a creamy texture with a hint of oak, and delicate stone fruit aromas. On the palate, the wine has flavors of ripe apple, lemon curd, and toasty oak. The finish is lingering and complex, with a hint of butterscotch. A truly remarkable Chardonnay that will age gracefully over the next few years.
