Ramey Ritchie Vineyard Chardonnay


2007 Ramey Ritchie Vineyard Chardonnay

REGION
Carneros, California

VARIETAL
Chardonnay

Available for Purchase Here

"In 2007, this stunning Chardonnay is our pick of the very good bunch from Ramey. It reflects much the same winemaking hand insofar as it is firm, compact and solidly-structured with nary a suggestion of fat, but it moves to the head of the clan by virtue of its extra richness and depth. While it presently hints at stony complexity and teams generous, wonderfully continuous, young fruit with very deftly fit oak, it has a good distance to go before it fully unwinds, and to drink it before it has had the chance to age for two or three years will be to miss what is sure to be a very grand wine."

"A big, rich red with tart cherry flavors and sweet tannins, this finishes clean."

90 Points - Wine & Spirits

"The 2006 Marilyn Merlot has a striking package. But, it's the wine inside that makes the vintage worth sipping. This is a medium-bodied Merlot, with soft tannins, bright fruit and a plush and lengthy finish. It's a tasty Merlot and makes for a collectors item both for the popularity of the brand and the tastiness of the wine."

"This sauvignon has the fatness of gooseberries and litchi nuts. Its firm edge of lemongrass will accent gingery Cantonese dishes, like steamed flounder."

"This is a firm, dry, minerally Chardonnay. It's not blockbuster rich, but it is clean and vibrant and elegant. The flinty flavors are enriched with notes of pineapples and green apples, while oak and lees give hints of buttered toast and sour cream. A very fine, food-friendly wine that sommeliers should be aware of."
