the Papalometl bottling shows aromas of leather

And it can bridge many courses

where Garnacha turns fresh and perfumed rather than jammy

Grown in the Schlossberg vineyard not too far from the Riesling

Delicious on its own

Forest Glen Sonoma Chardonnay Barrel Fermented 1997 (5L) 0426JACKSON the Papalometl bottling shows aromasThe 1997 Forest Glen Barrel Fermented Chardonnay is a snapshot of Sonoma's golden age style: 100% barrel fermented fruit that yields rich, honeyed aromatics and a palate layered with citrus, spice, and butterscotch. Aged in oak, the wine achieves a full, balanced finish that speaks to thoughtful winemaking. Now mature and drinking beautifully, this 5 liter format offers a generous volume of California Chardonnay history.
