Failla, Keefer Ranch Chardonnay

Failla, Keefer Ranch ChardonnayNA

pure and expressive with ripe red and black pinot fruit that gives way gracefully to wonderfully seductive middle weight flavors that possess good mid-palate concentration and while the finish possesses a slight tanginess

incisive and a touch youthfully austere

Here too there is very good vibrancy to the lilting and well-detailed medium weight flavors that flash evident salinity on the focused

Chewy and impressively concentrated

violet and discreet herbal tea nuances slides into the supple lighter weight flavors that are a bit more elegant than usual

with a sexy note of Asian spices adding lift

A whiff of wood is present on the expressive and vaguely exotic nose that offers up notes of algae

The palate shows great balance
