Mockingbird Chardonnay

2005 Napa Valley Chardonnay

The Mockingbird Hill Mockingbird Chardonnay from the esteemed Napa Valley is a striking example of what a well-crafted Chardonnay can offer. This full-bodied white wine showcases a delightful balance of high acidity and pronounced fruit intensity, making it incredibly refreshing on the palate. Aromas of ripe citrus and stone fruits, such as peach and apricot, intertwine beautifully with subtle notes of vanilla and a hint of toasted oak, thanks to its careful aging process. The mouthwatering profile is further complemented by delicately integrated, medium tannins, which lend a touch of structure without overwhelming the wine's elegance. Emphasizing its dry character, this wine is perfect for those seeking a sophisticated yet approachable experience, making every sip a true delight for Chardonnay enthusiasts.

It may be small, but when it comes to American wine regions, they do not come much bigger than Napa County. Home to the famous Napa Valley, which comprises most of its area, the Napa name has gained global recognition for its exceptional wines—especially its Bordeaux varieties. Most Napa County wineries choose to be more location-specific when labeling their wine, listing the name of sub-regions like Yountville, Los Carneros or Rutherford to capitalize on the name recognition. However, with such an abundance of high-quality grapes grown across the region, plenty of négociant winemakers blend fruit from different sub-regions. This gives Napa County wines excellent regional balance, taking advantage of different terroirs and mesoclimates.
