2005 Los Carneros Chardonnay, Catherine's Vineyard
Bonneau's fourth Los Carneros, Chardonnay wine release is made from our own estate-grown grapes. The Catherine Bonneau vineyard is located 8 miles south of Sonoma.
This exquisite Chardonnay is bright golden yellow in color. The nose wafts with citrus and ripe tropical fruit. These ripe fruit flavors fill the palate and are nicely framed by a modest amount of high quality French oak. The texture is supple with the silkiness of glycerin in the mouth. It has a snappy, slightly spicy finish that lingers on the palate. This well balanced wine has layers of complexity and a special air of refinement that speaks to the care and attention to detail in the making of this wine.
1100 cases were produced.
