Carmel Road Chardonnay 3L 2006

[ Home > Wines > Big Bottles > Big Bottles > Carmel Road Chardonnay 3L 2006 ]

Carmel Road Chardonnays are known for their rich flavors, firm acidity and brilliant varietal flavors. But it is the pronounced minerality that sets them apart from their peers throughout the Golden State. The 2006 is an overtly fruit-forward wine with a rich palate and crisp framework. Lemon sorbet/zest, pear, citrus blossom, and sweet vanilla flavors lead to toasted baguette in the finish.

Reviews:
Untitled
"Shows off a mix of light creamy oak, with green apple, pear, honeydew melon and spice, ending with an elegant finish. Drink now. 20,000 cases made. –JL" -Rated 86, Wine Spectator
Untitled
"Fresh and scented with crisp, Granny Smith apples, this nicely ripened and well-balanced bottling gets good marks for both its fine balance and its very clean lines. It is, like its sibling, a direct and uncomplicated wine, but it is bright and irrepressibly fruity, and it promises to serve particularly well with grilled prawns or seared scallops and with roasted or sauced poultry fare." -Rated 87, Connoisseur's Guide to California Wines
