Russian River Valley
2014 Zio Tony Ranch Russian River Valley Chardonnay
The nose offers abundant layers of cantaloupe, pineapple, peach and mango, as well as notes of clove, smoke and spice. On the palate, a subtle chalky minerality frames the exuberant fruit flavors, and while this wine offers excellent acidity, there is also an appealing roundness to the mouthfeel that carries the wine to a supple, yet focused, finish.
