DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
92 James Suckling Grown on Chandon’s property close to chilly San Pablo Bay, this cool, fresh wine offers a plush, velvety mousse, light citrus and crisp apple flavors with hints of minerals and salinity. It is 100% chardonnay, light-bodied, made with 10-15% of barrel fermentation in neutral barrels.
92 Tasting Panel Cool composure characterizes this 100% Chardonnay, 15% of which spends a brief interval in French oak before assemblage and secondary fermentation in bottle. Aromas of toast and both Anjou and Asian pear, mingled with intimations of sage and brûléed pineapple, carry over to the undulatingly smooth palate, where breezy minerality ushers in lime and burnt almond on the finish.
92 Wine Enthusiast A nose of lemon zest and phyllo dough leads to subtle flavors of green and golden apples draped in a lively, buoyant mousse. This attractive all-Chardonnay wine is fruity, nearly dry and quite appetizing in texture.
92 Wine Spectator Graceful yet dynamic, with multilayered lemon, lime and grapefruit flavors that glide on the lively, long finish.
