About Ferrari Carano 2021 Chardonnay, Tre Terre, Russian River Valley
This is the latest release of Ferrari Carano's Tre Terre Chardonnay. The 2016 was #36 on Wine Spectator's Top 100 Wines of 2018!! Ferrari-Carano has always been a leading producer of world-class, nationally-acclaimed wines. Vintage after vintage, the wines exhibit a remarkable consistency of style and elegance. To produce this Tre Terre Chard each lot is hand harvested, whole-cluster pressed, then barrel fermented with native and cultured yeast. The wine completes 89% malolactic fermentation and is sur lee aged and stirred weekly for 5 months. The final blend is barreled again in neutral oak until bottling, for a total of almost 15 months of barrel aging. All vineyard lots are treated separately until blending.
This wine is a treat for the senses from the first swirl of the glass. Aromas of spiced pear, golden apple, graham cracker and toasted marshmallow lead to a rich and layered palate. Carmel popcorn, apple crisp, and lemon chiffon flavors are balanced by bright acidity and notes of buttercream on the finish.
93 by Wine Enthusiast
‘Intricate oak spice aromas, a creamy texture and nicely layered fruit, butter and vanilla flavors make this wine a showstopper. Hinting at caramel, honey and macadamia nuts, the wine fills the mouth and lingers on the finish.’
