2017 Rivers-Marie Chardonnay B. Thieriot Vineyard, USA, California, Sonoma Coast, Wine Review
One of my favorite chardonnays. Golden in color. There is some oak on the wine but it is well done and mostly integrated on release. After a couple of years in the cellar, it drinks amazingly. The oak presents itself as a vanilla note which works well with the lemon cream and slight citrus of the Chardonnay. Almost seamless texture. Long finish. Delicious on its own and a great match with swordfish or salmon.
