Winemaker's Notes "The focus of expression in the 1999 Carneros District Chardonnay is terrific," commented Tim Mondavi at a tasting of the young 1999 wines. "The cool vintage gave us fully mature fruit with higher than normal acidity. The growing season is reflected in the wine's vibrancy, yet it has exceptional richness." Enticing notes of citrus, ripe apple, tropical fruit, flowers and cinnamon spice highlight the aromas and crisp flavors, culminating in a beautifully balanced finish. Barrel fermentation, partial malolactic fermentation and sur lie aging in small French oak barrels captured and enhanced the flavors of grapes grown in the esteemed Carneros District.
