2020 PLUMPJACK WINERY NAPA VALLEY CHARDONNAY RESERVE 750ML

Our Chardonnay grapes are sourced from two vineyards in the Napa Valley one in
Los Carneros and the other in St. Helena. The cooler Carneros site imparts this wine
with lemon zest green apple and Bosc pear on the nose while the warmer St. Helena site lends apricot melon and tropical notes. The Carneros vineyard also gives this wine a beautiful bright lively acidity which is balanced by the creamy rich texture of the St. Helena fruit. The touch of oak adds subtle layers to the nose and palate with traces of toasted almonds vanilla caramel and spice. By foregoing malolactic fermentation we are retaining the bright lively malic acid which helps to accentuate the fruit on the palate and gives this wine its balance drive and length.
