Russian River Valley Chardonnay

9.1

Very acidic, extremely oxidized, but yet manages to be austere. Not everyone's cup of sherry, but in the right circumstance, would be perfect. — 8 years ago

My experience with this wine is one that I will not forget. As a new student of wine, this will forever be my "first favorite" Chardonnay. The circumstance creates the rating on this for me. At the end of the day, the enjoyment is most important. The nose is fruity and slightly floral. Color is champagne/yellow. Green apple is prominent in taste. Body is medium +, opens up a lot on the roof of my mouth. Thoroughly enjoyed my first Chardonnay. — 8 years ago

Flaccianello. 100% Sangiovese but oddly IGT because of circumstance. A case study in the evolution of Italian designation. Some info here:
