The creaminess from the lactic acid is what you are feeling when you drink our Rombauer Chardonnays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e100% of our Chardonnay is both fermented and then briefly aged in oak barrels, a mixture of French and American. Every year a percentage of those barrels is new, two-year old, and three-year old as we believe a combination of barrel age is important to the flavor and textural development.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat said, our goal is for the oak influence to be in balance with the other core components of our Chardonnay so it might not be perceived as prominent as it is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYear:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2023\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e California\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% Chardonnay \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rombauer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50465661747503,"sku":"097921970109","price":45.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0749\/8668\/4719\/files\/rombauerchardII.jpg?v=1725482724","url":"https:\/\/www.timeforwineandmore.com\/products\/rombauer-chardonnay","provider":"Time for Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
