Zepaltas 2013 Babushka Chardonnay (Russian River Valley)

Country: US / Babushka
Variety: Chardonnay California
Winery: Zepaltas / Russian River Valley

Steely and perfumed, this wine sees only 20% new French oak, remaining vibrantly fresh. Baked apple and lemon pith veer into grapefruit on the palate, with spiciness to the finish that’s both brash and loud.
