2005 - Frog’s Leap Chardonnay |
Product Code: FROG2005002184
Price: Check Latest
Fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks and older French Oak barrels, the Frog’s Leap Chardonnay eschews the heavy vanilla and buttery flavors typical of high-malolactic, high-alcohol wines. Instead, aromas of apple and pear give way to the lighter, more delicate aromas of orange blossoms. The wine enters the palate cleanly and brightly with flavors of apricot, wet stone, and a hint of vanilla. Balanced by the wine’s acid the mouth-feel stays lively and light finishing with a great sense of earthiness. The wine’s bright and crisp finish makes it - low and behold, a food-friendly Chardonnay. Try it with Lobster Rolls (you New Englanders) or some BBQ Hog Island oysters (for those of us on the left coast).
