A Chardonnay from Rodney Strong Vineyards in the Chalk Hill AVA, Sonoma County, California, bottled at 13.5% ABV and made from 100% Chardonnay. Rodney Strong planted Chardonnay there in 1965, and the wine is barrel fermented in new and seasoned French oak, then aged for about 12 to 14 months with regular lees stirring; recent vintages have used roughly 36% new French oak. The nose shows golden pear, ripe peach, vanilla, baking spice, wet stone and butterscotch. The palate is creamy and full-bodied, with baked apple, Meyer lemon, apricot, ginger, toasted almond and a mineral thread. The finish is long, with vanilla, citrus pith and chalky minerality.
