Chardonnay
2015 Nine Barrel
On the nose, baked pear, NECTARINE, toasted hazelnut and CRÈME BRÛLÉE. On the palate, yellow apple and plum, SHORTBREAD and nougat. Richly textured and concentrated with BALANCED ACIDITY and a subtle toast.
Pair this with all the classics — rich seafood, creamy pasta, and gooey cheeses. Standouts such as scallop scampi, brown sugar-crusted salmon and chicken Marbella are magnificent pairings.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate
“The 2015 Chardonnay Nine Barrels simply sings of honeysuckle, lime blossoms and mandarin peel with a core of pineapple, nectarines, cashews and brioche. Full, rich, concentrated and featuring tons of spice and floral layers, it delivers layer upon layer of bold flavors and a very long finish.” – Lisa Perrotti-Brown (October, 2018)
