Russian River Valley
2017 Zio Tony Ranch Russian River Valley Chardonnay
One of the best Zio Tony Chardonnay yet! The nose is a refined compliment of honeydew melon, fresh pine needles and cedar with toasted hazelnuts and fresh butter pie crust. Yeasty and savory, the aromas are layered and complex, turning to fresh peach and ginger as the wine opens.
