The 2014 Carly’s Cuvee was made from a selection of Chardonnay vineyards in the American Canyon area of Napa Valley (Watson and Clarke) and from a gravelly area of Zinfandel Lane near St Helena. Made in a partial-malolactic style, with only light oak influence, this lovely multi- layered Chardonnay will please people looking for a wine that enhances food and holds its own out on the patio.
Winemaker’s Tasting Notes:”The 2014 Chardonnay opens with light tropical aromas alongside melon, juicy citrus and a layer of toasted oak and mineral. The silky entry introduces bright melon and citrus notes complementary to the nose, then progresses to a creamy, structured midpalate. The long, mouthwatering finish has bright acidity with lingering citrus, toasted nuts and wet stone flavors.”
