🏰 The 2021 Amici Windsor Ridge Chardonnay is a rich and refreshing wine sourced from vineyards on the rolling hillsides of the eastern edge of Russian River Valley. The 2021 harvest was a year of rebirth and achievement for Amici Cellars. This wine has received high praise, with Jeb Dunnuck awarding it 96 points and James Suckling giving it 95 points. It is noted for its elegant profile and ability to keep for 4-6 years. The nose is filled with delightful aromas of crisp granny smith apples, fragrant vanilla bean, and zesty lemon oil. On the palate, flavors of pineapple, white flower, and roasted hazelnut intertwine throughout a lively, mineral-driven finish. Critics also note exotic notes of lemon oil, orange blossom, brioche, and a kiss of honey, with a medium to full-bodied, fresh, focused, and elegant profile. It's described as a ripe and rich style of California Chardonnay balanced by pleasant Russian River Valley acidity. 【Highly acclaimed 96-point Chardonnay from a great Russian River Valley site, offering a rich yet refreshing profile.】 🍴 Food pairing suggestions: Pork, poultry, vegetarian dishes. 🥂 Event suggestions: Ideal for a special dinner, a gathering with friends, or simply enjoying on its own.
