Vermentino. Citrus, lemon. Definitely has more medium body (maybe influenced by stone fruit notes) with medium acid (want more actually). Good minerality. Easy drinking. — 6 years ago

I wanted something nice tonight. This was perfect. Winemaker Kurt Venge offers a Burgundian style to Sonoma. Red fruits and plush velvet finish. Definitely worth seeking out this off the beaten path wine. — 4 years ago

This is the 2017 Venge Brown Ranch Chardonnay still in tank. Should go into bottle this week.

The nose reveals; lemon, lime, green apple, notes of green vegetables, buttered popcorn, cream, vanilla, whiff of caramel, light butterscotch, honeysuckle, fruit blossoms, yellow flowers and lilies.

Beautiful mouthfeel. Creamy, thick, big and round, white spice, green apple, lime, an array of mixed tropicals, butter, cream, banana, melon, a slight vegetal characteristic, nice chalkiness, yellow flowers. Beautiful round acidity, thick, well, polished rich finish. Not your typical Napa/Sonoma Chardonnay and I really enjoyed it.

This is a 2008 vintage opened APRIL 2021 and allowed to breath after decanting 1-2h. The aroma is outstanding and provides hints of dark chocolate, black cherry and coffee. Taste is smooth and refreshing and unique!!! Highly recommended if you want a Syrah. — 3 years ago
