WINE DESCRIPTION
Robert Hall Chardonnay is produced from fruit sourced from cooler areas of Paso Robles. The wine was barrel fermented in French and Eastern European oak, of which a small proportion was new, to add sweet baking spice aromas. Malolactic fermentation also took place to round out the acidity and give the wine a buttery character. The wine was aged on lees for around 6 months contributing texture and body.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Robert Hall Chardonnay has bold tropical aromas of pineapple, mango, and white flowers with subtle notes of oak and vanilla add complexity.On the palate the wine is full-bodied and richly textured with good balance between firm acidity and ripeness of fruit. The finish is brimming with fruit and spice hinting at roasted pineapple and vanilla custard.

ORIGINS
Winery: Robert Hall
Region: Central Coast California
The Central Coast of California is a wine lover's paradise, boasting a wide variety of climates, soils, and grape varieties. Located between San Francisco and Los Angeles, the Central Coast spans from Monterey County in the north to Santa Barbara County in the south. With its diverse topography and Mediterranean climate, the Central Coast is home to some of the most renowned wineries in the United States.
The Central Coast has a long and storied history of winemaking, dating back to the mid-1800s. The first vineyards were planted in the Santa Clara Valley, and by the late 1800s, the region was producing some of the finest wines in the country. The region's reputation for quality wines was further solidified in the early 1989, when the Santa Clara Valley was declared among the first American Viticultural Area (AVA) in the United States.CUSTOMER RATING
