Las Almas Chardonnay-2006
The Casablanca Valley, north of the capital, Santiago, works like a vacuum, sucking in the cool air of the Pacific Ocean. For a long time Chilean winegrowers ignored the region, assuming it was too cool to ripen grapes for quality wines. Some experiments in the 1980s proved otherwise, and the region went on to establish itself as South America’s best source for elegant, complex white wines. Chardonnay does particularly well there, developing rich tropical fruit aromas without becoming fat and cloying...

Peter and Arpad Molnar grew up helping farm the family vineyard at the water’s edge in Carneros. Since the early 1970’s their chardonnay has been sold to well-known wineries (Phelps, Pride). This is the 3rd vintage of MF Chardonnay from Poseidon’s Vineyard and it is awesome. Gorgeous pear, apple, and sweet cream taste. Their other business in Hungary, a barrel cooperage, gives the wine a fully toasted finish. Swim fast salmon.

One of our favorite, local BIG & BUTTERY Chardonnays. Smell & taste brown butter, butterscotch, apple butter (getting the idea?) and toasty pear tart. Very rich texture and long-lasting finish. Mi Sueño: “My Dream” Rolando Herrera, Owner/Winemaker.

From a tiny parcel of the famous Santa Barbara County vineyard. Has all the opulence and complexity that love from Foxen wines. Tropical fruits, creamy texture, sweet butter, spiced orange, nutmeg and good acidity. Made in a full-throttle style, but the grapes keep it bright. 350 cases.
