RIDGE VINEYARDS Chardonnay ‘Monte Bello’ 2011

The 2011 Monte Bello Chardonnay immediately grabs your attention with seductive aromas of poached pear, tropical fruits. cherry blossoms, vanilla, toasted almonds, honeycomb, herbs and flinty minerality. It continues to impress on the palate with its rich, creamy texture and impeccable balance from start to finish. This is already offering so much character and I only expect to evolve even further over the next decade any beyond. Absolutely delicious! (Best 2014-2026) - October, 2014 (JD)
