Our winemaker Nicole Marchesi and the cellar crew are working hard this very moment, bottling the 2012 Far Niente Estate Bottled Chardonnay. To give you something to look forward to, here are Nicole’s tasting impressions: The 2012 vintage offers lively aromas of lemon and lime citrus zest, honeydew melon, wet stone and honeysuckle blossom. Bright upon entry with a silky texture through the mid-palate, this wine is focused and long with citrus and mineral flavors supported by integrated notes of oak. The finish is clean and refreshing.
