Newton Unfiltered Napa Valley Chardonnay 2012
The Newton 2012 "Unfiltered" Chardonnay has just been released - always one of California's finest Chardonnays! Newton Vineyards is one of the great vineyard estates of Spring Mountain with neighbors like Cain, Pride Mountain and Paloma. Their highly-rated Unfiltered Chardonnay sells out every year. Get it before the ratings come out! 94 Points Robert Parker: "Newton’s 2012 Chardonnay Unfiltered exhibits lots of honeysuckle, tropical fruit and marmalade, good minerality and excellent acidity that buttresses and provides uplift to the full-bodied, lavish, extravagant nature of this Chardonnay. As this wine ages, it will undoubtedly take on more Burgundy, Bâtard-Montrachet-like characteristics, but it is hard to resist young (which I know from personal experience). Enjoy it over the next 6-10+ years......This cuvée has been one of California’s great classic Chardonnays for over two decades. It also has remarkable aging potential. In the early years, much of the credit went to some of the talented people who worked here, including John Kongsgaard, Luc Morlet and Michel Rolland.."

Gorgeous. This is the Newton Unfiltered Chardonnay. That is how it should be listed honestly. If you need a location, per the label Napa Valley.

A great Napa Chard. Great mouth feel, full bodied. Nose - tropical fruit, citrus, very light. Taste - tropical fruits, buttery, not a lot of oak, still a decent minerality.

One of my best white I have ever had. Changed every sip of drink, could feel various styles of chardonnay in one Newton!

Buttery(?), fruit flavor. Full body for a white wine. Tart finish.
