Keenan 2020 Chardonnay Spring Mountain District Napa Valley
$44.99Keenan 2020 Chardonnay Spring Mountain District Napa Valley
Great new Chardonnay release from Keenan! One of our favorite wineries on Napa's Spring Mountain.
93 Points James Suckling: "A fresh and vivid chardonnay with cooked-apple, honey and cream character. Medium-to full-bodied, fresh and bright. Tight. No malo. One for the cellar. Drink or hold."
Keenan's 2020 Chardonnay was hand harvested, de-stemmed, then gently pressed. The juice was fermented and aged in French and American oak barrels. The wine was left on the lees and the barrels were stirred weekly. No secondary, or malolactic fermentation was carried out, leading to the crisp, citrus character of this wine. The wine was bottled after approximately seven months of aging in the cellar. The finished wine shows citrus, ripe pear and green apple in the nose. Hints of lush white peach are noticed as the wine opens up. The sur-lie aging has added richness and complexity, and a touch of toasty oak returns on the finish. Like all of Keenan’s wines, this Chardonnay is a food worthy wine whose crisp acidity and medium body will accompany a wide variety of fare.
