2003 Ferrari-Carano Chardonnay - Alexander Valley, 750ml [ $28 ]

In keeping with our classic style of Chardonnay, we have blended fruit from eight of our most prized vineyards. The wine is then barrel fermented in French oak for 10 months. The result is a fruit-focused offering with tropical over tones of papaya and mango supplemented by toasty almond flavors. It is easy to become captivated by the wonderful complexity of this wine, but equally impressive is its tremendous balance and length.
