Franciscan Cuvee Sauvage Chardonnay 2006
Chardonnay
from Carneros, California
winemaker's notes:
Full-bodied, round and lively, with bosc pear, honey, lemon, stone fruit, and rich notes of toasty oak. Supple mid-palate has sweet notes of vanilla and cream, followed by a long, mineral,
finish with crisp acidity.
"A distinguished Chard, from a producer with a good track record at this bottling. It's ripe and immediately appealing, in the California style." 92 Points
Wine & Spirits
"Deep golden hue. Complex aromas of clove, mango and banana. Juicy flavors of lemon custard. Creamy acidity and hints of brioche and gingerbread in the lemon-driven close." 92 Points
