Patz & Hall Russian River Valley Chardonnay 750ml

Green apple and spicy pear aromas leap from the glass. Notes of Muscat and orange blossom waft around toasted hazelnut, clove, banana and fresh earth. Dense and mouth filling, the wine shows great acidic flow and a dynamic range of flavors. It’s complex without being heavy or tedious. Tangerine, dried apricot, chai tea and crème caramel dart and weave through the long finish. 

Floral and mineral-driven, this coastal wine delivers a stoniness of green apple and pear—crisp, defined flavors that lead to a complementary spread of brioche and toasted oak. Hearty and rich, it has balance and concentration. VIRGINIE BOONE-Wine Enthusiast
