Item Description

Way back when, long before you were old enough to drink wine, Jack Cakebread began to gain acclaim as one of the top small producers of Napa Valley wine. His first vintage was 157 cases of 1973 Chardonnay that was the beginning of a loyal following of ever-growing fans. Still going strong, Cakebread is a favorite of critics and wine consumers. This 2006 Chardonnay received a Gold Medal in the San Francisco Chronicles annual competition, and a lofty 87 points from WS which called it clean and refreshing, snappy and vibrant, with zesty citrus, grapefruit, fresh quince and green apple notes. The wine maker described a sleek entry expands into a creamy, concentrated mid-palate with rich lemon zest, melon, white peach and vanilla flavors segueing seamlessly into a refreshingly flinty, mineral-tinged finish. This is a lovely example of a fresh, Napa Chardonnay.
