WINE DESCRIPTION
This Shafer Red Shoulder Ranch Chardonnay is a rich and opulent white wine from the Napa Valley region of California. It has aromas of ripe pineapple, honeydew melon, and juicy citrus, followed by flavors of baked apple, pear, and a hint of butterscotch. The finish is long and creamy, with a touch of toasted oak and a pleasant mineral character. Enjoy this full-bodied and luxurious wine with creamy pastas, grilled seafood, and roasted poultry.

Customer Review AI Summary
Shafer Red Shoulder Ranch Chardonnay is praised for its rich, buttery texture and well-integrated oak, with notes of tropical and stone fruits like pineapple, peach, and apple. Some find it elegant and balanced, while others note a strong oak presence. The wine's creamy finish and vibrant acidity are appreciated, but a few reviews mention it can be overly full-bodied or lack complexity.
