Russian River Valley Sonoma
Retail Price: $75.00
Notes from the Winemaker: Yields were up from the excellent 2012 vintage giving us a dozen-plus barrels of opulent Barcaglia Lane Chardonnay. Sourced from a unique Dutton Ranch vineyard planted with 3 different clones for us in 1998, this wine is a blockbuster. Copious amounts of ripe citrus, melon and yellow peach fruit bask in spicy, tropical-floral aromas with a lick of butterscotch and honey. Lots of weight on this plush and super-silky palate punctuated with bright native acidity and finishing with tangerine and toasty oak. 400 cases produced
