Raeburn Winery
Russian River Valley Chardonnay
Russian River Valley, Sonoma County, California, USA
Drank 4/7/20. Nice with Crabcakes.
Simple, lemon curd on the nose. Fruit forward palate with lemon, green apple, and a hint of pear. Creamy mouth feel suggests sur lie aging, but no detectable oak. A clean, well made chardonnay, nice, but a bit simple for my taste. Medium finish.
2/22/7/4/3 +50 =88 pts.

Jun 10th, 2021Great value! Awesome! Tropical citrus and apple flavors with just enough oaky creaminess on the finish.

So incredibly smooth: a perfect blend of vanilla notes, citrus & cream that produce a well balanced sip from start to finish…wow!

Feb 13th, 2021Decent. Not the best I've tastted but also not the worst. If none of my higher rated wines were available, I'd buy again. Decent creaminess, decent fruit, not sour, not pineapple. Apple? Overall decent.
