Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars Chardonnay |
2005 Arcadia Vineyard Estate Chardonnay Napa Valley
The 2005 ARCADIA VINEYARD Chardonnay opens with a gorgeous bouquet of orange blossoms, lemon grass, and wildflower honey. This inviting perfume is enriched with flavors of spiced apples and pears laced around a flinty core. The wine has a bright, juicy entry with expanding roundness on the mid-palate, finishing with a dancing lightness and lingering sensations of citrus and vanilla spice. It’s an excellent companion to herb-crusted salmon on a bed of mesclun, chicken saltimbocca with lemon sauce, or as an aperitif with Epoisse, the traditional Burgundian cow’s milk cheese. |
