2016 Chardonnay
Untitled #11
Sonoma County
Winemaker Notes
Through the art of blending our Untitled #11 Chardonnay achieves a perfect balance of richness, acidity and elegance. The palate is full of ripe tropical notes and orange oil, laced with creamy sweet spices. The finish is long, seductive and persistent on the palate.
VINOUS Review
by Antonio Galloni
The 2016 Chardonnay Untitled #11 is a barrel selection meant to capture the essence of the year. That is exactly what comes through in this deep, beautifully resonant Chardonnay. Pineapple, butter and popcorn express the most extroverted, racy side of the year – 92 pts.
