“The Gary Farrell Russian River Selection Chardonnay 2013 opens with alluring aromas of white peach, Pink Lady apples, Asian pear, quince, and persimmon. Layers of fresh, vibrant fruit are intermingled with hints of toffee, butterscotch, and warm brioche, all while displaying traces of cedar, vanilla, and dried ginger. Flavors of citrus oil and lemon meringue abound in this white wine, lending a wonderful mid-palate that follows through to a zesty, mineral-laden finish.”
