Winery:  "For decades Freemark Abbey's Napa Valley Chardonnay has maintained its enviable status as one of Napa's "classic" styles, utilizing little or no malolactic fermentation.

This wine has a greenish yellow hue.  The aroma is of ripe banana, juicy fruit, lemon-line and floral.  There is a subtle touch of oak with flavors of apples, bananas and creamy butterscotch flavors.  Good balance and viscosity.  Long fruitful finish, yet crisp and clean."

Wired for Wine:  The Freemark Abbey winery has been in operation since 1886, when Josephine Marlin Tychson became the first woman to build and operate a winery in California.  The long history of this winemaking shows itself with this lovely Chardonnay. 

Try this bottle with pan-seared salmon with mushrooms and spinach.  You'll love it.
