Sipping Fine Wine 
1 of CA's oldest wineries, Far Niente, founded 1885 by John Benson. Winery flourished until Prohibition, when it was abandoned & fell into complete disrepair. Stately stone shell of a winery purchased in 1979 by Gil Nickel. A big wine! Tropical and stone fruit aromas with complex spice and oak notes. On the palate apple, peach and citrus flavors, creamy, with buttery toasty oak, fig/honey tones. Long finish ending with vibrant acidity & mineral character. Consistent.

Far Niente Napa Valley Chardonnay 2019: Medium-body. Medium acidity. Great balance & structure. This wine offers a fresh floral nose and some really nice strong, full flavors of citrus, lemon zest & stone fruit as well as vanilla, oak & minerals. Elegant dry crisp finish. Overall, an excellent California Chardonnay that never disappoints! Great weekend to all! Cheers

Crisp, balanced, tasty. Probably a little oakier than the ‘18? Toastier than Rombauer.

Very good! Lighter and less oaky but still very balanced than the cave collection and older vintages. More acidic in a good way.
