Foxglove Chardonnay 2006

White Sustainably Grown   BN#195604
Varietal Chardonnay
Category White Wine
Region California : Central Coast : Edna Valley
Producer Foxglove
Alcohol 14.3%


This second label wine from Varner is almost entirely raised in steel tank (it sometimes sees a barrel or two). Reminiscent of a pure, but rich Chablis, the wine forgoes malolactic fermentation, leaving it packed with natural acidity.

Wine Advocate The 18,000 cases of 2006 Fox Glove Chardonnay should not last long in the marketplace. All tank-fermented and lee-stirred with no malolactic, this is outrageously delicious Chardonnay showing plenty of white currant, pineapple, and tangerine skin notes, with gorgeous fruit purity, medium body, crisp acidity, and oodles of naked varietal fruit that is surprisingly complex and rich with great zestiness. Score: 90. —Robert Parker,
