Ramey Russian River Valley Chardonnay 2016 Review
This wine deserves an essay there is so much going on but to sum it up we have passion fruit, honeysuckle, vanilla, almond and jasmine all with their own voice; carrying through to a deep, lengthy palate with the addition of some dill and a hint of coconut to create one hell of a complex profile. One glass of this wine wine will stun and wow you but unfortunately the alcohol is so high that after a few you may be passed out at the dinner table. You deserve to experience the powerful, classic American Chardonnay but maybe have three friends around so everyone gets just one glass.
