Napa Dan
"Pool Yard Chard" Chardonnay
Napa Valley
Created by
Gary Galleron
Aptly named "Pool Yard Chard" this Chardonnay
is made from grapes surrounding the pool house of Lynch Vineyards. These
grapes grow in Eastern Napa County where the warm days and cool evenings
make for a late bloom and early harvest - and a very crisp, smooth, deliciously
drinkable wine. The nose offers delightful hints of green apple and nectarine
components with subtle notes of toasty oak. This non-malolactic Chardonnay
exhibits more fruitier characteristics while maintaining an overall creamy
structure. The wine was barrel fermented for 8 months in 100% new French
oak barrels.
