Senses UV - El Diablo Vineyard Chardonnay Russian River Valley

California

Russian River Valley

The 2019 UV - El Diablo Vineyard Chardonnay was aged for 14 months in French oak, 30% of it new. It sashays out with bold tropical fruit notes of pineapple and guava followed by hints of oyster shell, buttered toast, and fresh ginger. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is tightly wound, with layers of bright tropical flavors, a lively backbone, and opulent texture, finishing very long and decadent. Located in the Russian River Valley, El Diablo vineyard was planted in 2008 by Ulises Valdez, a highly skilled local vineyard manager who passed away a few years ago. This site is slightly more inland and warmer, so it is usually harvested a month earlier than the other Senses vineyards.
