| 2006 Girard Chardonnay "Russian River Valley" Winery: Girard Vintage: 2006 Wine Name/Vineyard: "Russian River Valley" Wine Category: Chardonnay Grape blend: 100% Chardonnay Region: Russian River Valley State or country: CA Price: $24 Cases produced: 9,679 KWG Score: 89 (based on 4 reviews) Ken's Wine Rating: Very Good (89.99-87) Review date: March 9, 2008 Wine Review: This richly yellow colored wine opens with a little light green apple and pear like bouquet. On the palate, this medium to full bodied wine is round, creamy, rich, and has apricot like flavors with some green apple influences. The finish is dry and touch acidic. This wine would nicely enhance a swordfish dish and complement homemade macaroni and cheese with ham as well. Enjoy - Ken Winemaker Notes: Our 2006 Russian River Chardonnay exhibits wonderful brightness, clarity and light weight on the palate. The crispness and minerality of the wine makes it a lovely food companion but you will find it to be quite enjoyable on its own. Superb peach and melon aromas with refreshing citrus flavors are accented with hints of toasted nuts and a subtle, rich texture from the sur lies aging. Organic status: not organic Buy it: Use 1000 Corks to find stores that sell Girard 2006 Chardonnay Russian River Valley.
