Amici Chardonnay Charles Heintz Vineyard 2016  - First Bottle

Reviews

96 Jeb Dunnuck -
The gem in the lineup is the 2016 Chardonnay Charlie Heintz Vineyard, which comes from a well-known site in the Russian River Valley out near Occidental. Straight-up rocking notes of white flowers, candied ginger, lemon, and citrus all flow to a racy, pure, elegant Chardonnay that does everything right. With good concentration, high acidity, and a great finish, this balanced beauty can be drunk today or cellared for 7-8 years.

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
Wow! It’s good to be a local -- how else would we snag a few cases of this winery-only single-vineyard, 96-point bottling!? THRILLING Chardonnay!! “Anthony Biagi is a tour de force in the Northern California wine world. A sixth-generation Californian, he spent 10 years working at Cade and Plumpjack. Currently, he’s the winemaker for Hourglass in St. Helena and Amici in Calistoga…” --- Wine Advocate. Check out a full interview with Tony here!

 

Biagi is also an awesome dude to hang out with --- we have consumed dozens and dozens of really old wines together, and we’re stoked to have this to offer you. Charles Heintz Vineyard is one of Sonoma Coast's most coveted sites, dubbed “one of the great Grand Cru Chardonnay sites in California” by Robert Parker. Add that to Tony’s illustrious winemaking, in a great vintage like 2016, and we’re thinking this EASILY deserves its nice Jeb score of 96, oh yes! You can’t even FIND this wine anywhere except right here and at the winery itself!

Hard to argue with that! This Chard really does nail the fine line of power and freshness, with baskets of complex fruits and spices and a killer long finish. WHAT A PRICE, TOO!

 

$329.70 a 6-PACK DELIVERED! Or grab a few and mix it up with a few others we have in stock to get free shipping --- either way you cannot go wrong! We’ve been selling out a lot lately...move FAST!
