HRM Rex Goliath California Chardonnay 2006
Region: California
Winery: Rex Goliath
Variety: Chardonnay

The 2006 Rex Goliath Chardonnay is fresh and lively with supple tropical fruit . . . a true expression of cool-coastal-climate Chardonnay. Abundant, ripe, tropical fruit flavors of pineapple and melon are coupled with well-integrated layers of creamy lemon curd and hints of vanilla.
I've added aromatic white varietals to provide layers of delicate floral notes coupled with bright citrus character. Round fruit and vibrant acidity are harmoniously balanced with the bold influence of French oak. The oak used for our wines is a proprietary blend of French oak, with varying degrees of toasting. This gives the Rex Goliath oak profile a distinct flavor, like no other wine on the planet!
To me, this is the ultimate food wine . . . it goes with everything from ahi tuna tartare, to Asian chicken salad, to good ol' mac and cheese!
Cheers!Michael KafkaWinemaker
