Forest Glen Sonoma Chardonnay Barrel Fermented 1997 (5L) NO20231108 compact palate of wild strawberryThe 1997 Forest Glen Barrel Fermented Chardonnay is a snapshot of Sonoma's golden age style: 100% barrel fermented fruit that yields rich, honeyed aromatics and a palate layered with citrus, spice, and butterscotch. Aged in oak, the wine achieves a full, balanced finish that speaks to thoughtful winemaking. Now mature and drinking beautifully, this 5 liter format offers a generous volume of California Chardonnay history.
