Sipping Fine Wine

9.2

Wine had become an integral part of George Radael's hotel career & inspired him to purchase land in the Napa Valley & Georg Rafael Vineyards was born in 1996, now run with his son Marc. Aged for 10 months in neutral French oak giving this CA wine a French flair. Light straw with stone fruit and citrus aromas. On the palate crisp apple, peach and Asian pear flavors with vanilla and citrus notes. Lingering, nut like finish ending with a mineral character. Very Nice! — 7 years ago

Chablis to make you an obsessive. Round with intense fruit, but simultaneously crisp and fresh, lingering forever (including still stalking my mouth-dreams weeks later!) — 11 years ago

In my constant search for the best 100% meunière, this is up there with the best, C-T Les Barres, Prevost, Bereche, Emmanuel Brochet, and the impossible find George Laval.

An exciting combination of energy and restraint. It’s not about the fruit. Very savory. — 7 years ago

Really funky when opened. Decanted then aerated in glass. Really came around and continued to improve. Will open and decant well before meal in the future. Ended in a really good place. Thanks Roy Whitehead! Magnum format. — 11 years ago
