2010 Lloyd Cellars Chardonnay Carneros Napa
Lloyd
Chardonnay is an unabashed California Chard. The grapes come from
two of my favorite Sangiacomo Vineyards, Home Ranch and Green Acres
in the Carneros region.
Picked
at their peak of ripeness, the grapes are gently pressed, settled,
and moved to barrels to be cold fermented. The room is kept at a
very low temperature keeping the wine from fermenting too rapidly
and thus losing its aromatics. The wine slowly undergoes primary
and secondary fermentation for nine months before being racked off
its primary lees, filtered, and bottled.
Aromatics of pineapple, vanilla, and tropical fruit jump out of the
glass. A rich mouth-feel balanced with just enough acidity allow
the wine to disappear quickly, leaving you waiting for the next
taste… enjoy! Robert Lloyd winemaker
