Buehler Russian River Valley Chardonnay (2008)
Description:
Located six winding miles east of St. Helena and nestled in the mountains below Howell Mountain, Buehler Vineyards encompasses three hundred acres of Napa Valley hillside terrain.
Russian River Chardonnay is born from two vineyards within the Russian River appellation: Wood Vineyard, located on River Rd and River Vineyard, located in the heart of Sonoma’s Russian River Valley on East Side Road.
Buehler's winemaking philosophy is that less intervention is better in dealing with a delicate variety like Chardonnay. Winemaking techniques including sur-lie aging, lees stirring, full malolactic fermentation, and the measured use of some new French oak are employed to bring you this delicious rendition from Sonoma’s premier Chardonnay appellation.
Displays abundant passion fruit/ stone fruit aromas accented by toasty, graham cracker sur-lie qualities. The mouthfeel is creamy and full but the natural acidity of the Russian River fruit carries this velvet textured package to a long, clean finish.
