Far Niente Napa Valley Chardonnay 2019: Medium-body. Medium acidity. Great balance & structure. This wine offers a fresh floral nose and some really nice strong, full flavors of citrus, lemon zest & stone fruit as well as vanilla, oak & minerals. Elegant dry crisp finish. Overall, an excellent California Chardonnay that never disappoints! Great weekend to all! Cheers🍷

Crisp, balanced, tasty. Probably a little oakier than the ‘18? Toastier than Rombauer.

Very good! Lighter and less oaky but still very balanced than the cave collection and older vintages. More acidic in a good way.
