STAGS' LEAP CHARDONNAY
Sometimes the best choice is one that’s so familiar that you might forget it’s even there, but for lovers of Napa Chardonnay
seeking an outstanding value, the enticing 93 pt. 2022 Stags’ Leap Winery Chardonnay belongs at the top of the list, offering
fresh aromatic fruit hinting of citrus and spice with crisp, flinty acidity on a bright and lively finish, a seriously delicious,
bargain priced Carneros Chard that over delivers.
Located off the Silverado Trail, the Stags’ Leap Winery is among the oldest growers in the Stags Leap District, the 240-acre
property continuously planted with vines since the late 1800’s. Sourced from AVA’s in southern Napa Valley that enjoy the cooling
effects of San Pablo Bay, most of the grapes for the 2022 Stags’ Leap Winery Chard came from Carneros, adding crisp citrusy apple
notes and distinct minerality, while a smaller amount from Oak Knoll contribute richer, more tropical flavors. Fermented in a mix
of stainless-steel tanks and barrels, the 2022 Stags Leap Winery Chardonnay was aged in 25% stainless steel, 25% new French oak
and the remaining 50% in neutral French oak for 7 months on the lees, the restrained use of new oak allowing the luscious, mouth
coating fruit and refreshing acidity to take center stage.
An easy choice for Napa Chardonnay fans and anyone seeking a bargain priced everyday white, the appealing 93 pt. 2022 Stags’ Leap
Winery Chardonnay balances upfront richness with classic bright acidity and tantalizing complexity, its outstanding value price
proof positive that a great tasting Napa Chard doesn’t have to cost an arm and a leg
