Kosta Browne One Sixteen Chardonnay 2020 750ml
The marine influence that follows the Russian River inland from the Pacific coast is a powerful attribute of this region. The fog helps keep nights cool and offers the vines a well-deserved break from daytime temperatures. The collection of famous Chardonnay vineyards that we work with for this wine are located in the coolest parts of the Russian River Valley. Here, fruit can mature gracefully on the vine, which we find offers us more intensely focused flavors.
Individual pressed lots were all 100% native primary and malolactic fermentations, which adds depth and complexity to the finished wine. From its rich yet lean and focused structure to the vivid notes of citrus, honeysuckle, and crème brûlée, this wine has a vivacious acidity and is worth the wait.
Depth of fruit and texture here, with sliced apple, flint and pineapple skin. It’s full and layered, with beautiful fruit and length.
Jeb DunnuckPineapple, peach and mango flavors are intense and juicy, showing tangy acidity on a bold frame. Vanilla and pastry flavors linger in the background, with spice notes. Drink now.
The 2020 Chardonnay One Sixteen is scented of yellow apples, beeswax, almonds and flint. The palate is waxy in texture, with tangy acidity, concentrated fruits and a long, spicy finish.
