Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Ripe peach, citrus fruits, spice, and pie crust aromas all mingle and lift from the glass. The citrus, supported by notes of apricot, continues on the palate which is concentrated with a rich, creamy middle palate, and strong supporting acidity. The finish is long and marked with hints of vanilla. This wine will continue to build richness as it ages in the bottle.

Professional Ratings

  • 92

    A toasty, spicy aroma leads to ripe apple, pear and nutmeg flavors in this friendly, full-bodied wine. It offers a mouthfilling richness, persistent fruit and baking-spice flavors, and a lingering finish.

    COMMENTARY: The 2021 Rombauer Vineyards Carneros Chardonnay is smooth yet crisp on the palate. TASTING NOTES: This wine excels with aromas and flavors of peach skin, melon, ripe citrus, and a hint of oaky notes. Pair it with steamed Dungeness crab. (Tasted: May 8, 2023, San Francisco, CA)

One of the most popular and versatile white wine grapes, Chardonnay offers a wide range of flavors and styles depending on where it is grown and how it is made. While it tends to flourish in most environments, Chardonnay from its Burgundian homeland produces some of the most remarkable and longest lived examples. California produces both oaky, buttery styles and leaner, European-inspired wines. Somm Secret—The Burgundian subregion of Chablis, while typically using older oak barrels, produces a bright style similar to the unoaked style. Anyone who doesn't like oaky Chardonnay would likely enjoy Chablis.

Carneros Wine

California

View all products

Known for elegant wines that combine power and finesse, Carneros is set in the rolling hills that straddle the southernmost parts of both Sonoma and Napa counties. The cooling winds from the abutting San Pablo Bay, combined with lots of midday California sunshine, create an ideal environment for producing wines with a perfect balance of crisp acidity and well-ripened fruit.

This cooler pocket of California lends itself to growing Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Syrah. Carneros is an important source of sparkling wines made in the style of Champagne as well.
