Rochioli Chardonnay River Block 2016
White
Russian River Valley, United States
7.5
WineSaint
Bold and voluptuous, this River Block delivers tropical fruit, toasted oak and honeyed richness with serious textural weight. The approach is maximalist. Concentrated yellow fruit, vanilla spice and buttery depth that announces itself without apology. Lacks finesse but compensates with sheer intensity and presence.
