"At 14% alcohol one could say this wine is undersized compared to the previous vintages of Sweeney Canyon Chardonnay. Nevertheless, there is a lot to like with the notes of lemon, butter, and Thai lemon grass intermixed with hints of orange rind, honeysuckle, and roasted nuts. Less complex than the 2002, 2001, and 2000, and on a faster evolutionary track, it is still vigorous and exuberant, and should drink well for at least another decade."

The fourth-largest wine producer in the world, led by California. American fine wine is defined by ripe, expressive fruit and a spirit of innovation, with Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon among the most sought-after wines globally.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
