-- 2005 Dominique Chardonnay
We are pleased to introduce an all-new collection of Russian River Valley “Vineyard Select Collection” Chardonnays — the Ferrari-Carano 2005 Dominique Chardonnay is terroir-driven with intense ripe aromas of apple, fig and white peaches, interspersed with a hint of maple syrup and nutmeg. Bright acidity with layers of intense flavors characterize this spectacular new wine from our Russian River Valley “Vineyard Select Collection” series.
Vintage Notes
The fruit for this wine comes from a single vineyard alongside a creek in one of the coolest regions of the Russian River Valley, an area known for producing some of the world’s best Chardonnays. A mild late spring and summer ensured that the mature vines had a healthy canopy for the grapes, which provided the perfect combination of sunlight and heat penetrating the grape clusters. These conditions allowed the grapes to reach full maturity in both flavor and structure. Harvest was completed mid-October
Winemakers Notes
A single vineyard site with three Chardonnay clones comprise our 2005 Dominique Chardonnay. Each lot for this wine was whole cluster pressed, then cold-settled for two days in stainless steel tanks, and within 24 hours moved directly to barrels, utilizing various French oak cooperages. Aged separately in French oak, the wine undergoes 50 percent malolactic fermentation and is sur lee aged and stirred every two weeks for 15 months until bottling.
