"A profound effort, the 2013 Chardonnay Reserve (100% barrel-fermented and aged 17 months sur lie in 70% new French oak) is a killer Chardonnay. Offering notes of poached pear, orange and tangerine oil, a full-bodied mouthfeel, great texture and purity, this is a super wine from their estate four-acre block in the Oak Knoll District. This Chardonnay is no shy child . . . but it is beautifully obscured by the extravagant fruit. It is a compelling wine - light greenish gold in color, with magnificent depth of fragrance and flavor."

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.
