"Pale bright yellow. Austere aromas of grapefruit pith and stone, with high notes of lavender and violet. Dense, rich, seamless and light on its feet, with pear and citrus fruit flavors given punch by a strong crushed stone element. This very young chardonnay finishes with excellent sneaky length. I happened to taste this next to a decent Corton-Charlemagne and the two wines showed more similarities than differences."

The fourth-largest wine producer in the world, led by California. American fine wine is defined by ripe, expressive fruit and a spirit of innovation, with Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon among the most sought-after wines globally.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
