Carmenet 2001 Chardonnay
Northern Sonoma
Cellar Selection [link]
Creamy and complex, lively yet polished ...just like you! Ripe
pear, citrus and pippin apple collide with the Tahitian
influence of vanilla bean and pineapple to create a wine with
supple body and a bright, crisp finish. Try this with a simple
brie or camembert to savor the nuances.
