One of the most popular and versatile white wine grapes, Chardonnay offers a wide range of flavors and styles depending on where it is grown and how it is made. While practically every country in the wine producing world grows it, Chardonnay from its?Burgundian?homeland produces some of the most remarkable and longest lived examples. As far as cellar potential, white Burgundy rivals the world?s other age-worthy whites like Riesling or botrytized Semillon.?California?is Chardonnay?s second most important home, where both oaky, buttery styles and leaner, European-inspired wines enjoy great popularity. Oregon, Australia and South America are also significant producers of Chardonnay.
In Failla's ongoing quest for purity of expression, the winery continues to shift toward more neutral ?levage for this enjoy-it-young chardonnay -- splitting half of the fruit between concrete egg and stainless steel vessels. The remainder fermented and aged in french oak, only 15% new, and barely perceptible in the finished wine?s aromas of wet-stone, lime and oyster-shell. Malolactic fermentation provides a round, glycerin finish that balances the wine?s vibrant mouth-watering acidity.
