NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Rutherford Hill Chardonnay is a delightfully rounded and balanced white wine with aromas of sweet tropical fruit, lemon, and honey.On the palate, it is lush and creamy, with flavors of peach, apricot, and a hint of toasty oak. The finish is smooth and lingering, with a nice mineral quality. Enjoy this delicious Chardonnay with grilled seafood, roasted vegetables, or creamy pastas.
