One of the premier wine growing regions in the United States, the Carneros AVA straddles two of the most famous names in California: Napa Valley & Sonoma. It's the first wine region in California to be defined by climate, as the cool, windy breezes come in from the San Pablo Bay and settle on the southernmost foothills of the Mayacamas and Sonoma mountain ranges. Long known for its quintessential cool-climate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, Carneros is home to famed wineries like Etude, Saintsbury, and Patz & Hall. A classic blend of richness and elegance, the Block 517 Special Reserve Chardonnay showcases rich aromas with notes of melon, citrus and buttery oak complement flavors of ripe melon and tropical fruit. The palate is elegantly balanced with a bright citrus finish. Only 866 cases made!
"The Block 517 opens with aromas of ripe apples, accented by white peach and a touch of oak. Across the palate,
this golden wine is silky with flavors of apple, citrus and pear balanced by approachable acidity. The finish is clean & long, with hints of mineral,vanilla, and some lemon zest." The Wine Buyer, 95 Points
