2007 Chardonnay, Russian River Valley - David Noyes Wines

In the mouth, the wine opens into a full-bodied, lively, expression of Chardonnay fruit, supported by richer flavors of caramel and butterscotch. One sip invites another, and should for many years to come.

2005 Chardonnay, Carneros, Napa Valley - Cuttings Wharf (SL Cellars)

This Chardonnay was barrel fermented utilizing natural wild yeast and aged sur lies in 100% new French Oak for 10 months. Stirred to increase the yeast contact and add richness to the mouth-feel, the wine completed its secondary, malolactic fermentation in the barrel as well. Only a light filtration before bottling was necessary to retain rounder flavors without any bitter aftertaste. The result is a combination of aromas and tastes that remind of sweet Meyer lemons, creme brulee, pear compote and warm biscuits.
