2014 Roberts and Rogers Reserve Chardonnay $45

()

Winery Tasting Notes:
“The Reserve Chardonnay is a blend of fruit sourced from the Finest Vineyards in Napa Valley & Carneros – the gateway to the Wine Country. The Los Carneros AVA region has ideal growing conditions for cool climate Chardonnay. A longer growing season allows the grapes to mature slowly, developing a refined complexity with depth & concentration. Blending of the fruit creates layers of distinctive flavors of ripe pears & melons rarely found in Chardonnay. The grapes are cold soaked in Stainless Steel to extract all the flavors & fermented in 100% French Oak barrels to provide the perfect balance of fruit with a Creamy Vanilla finish!”
