"The 2009 Chardonnay Old Guard is gorgeous. Citrus, lemon, minerals and crushed rocks are attractively woven together in this beautifully delineated, articulate wine. The 2009 boasts fabulous minerality, length and focus to match a racy personality that is highly appealing. Most of the fruit was sourced from Solomon Hills, although 10% came from Sanford & Benedict. Only 25% of the wine went through malolactic fermentation."

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.
