The 2019 Chardonnay Olivet Ranch is another stellar wine in this range from Failla. Deep and expansive on the palate, the Olivet Chardonnay is also super transparent, making for a highly engaging wine that overdelivers on so many levels, the most important being in its sheer appeal.
The 2019 Chardonnay Olivet Ranch comes from a vineyard in the Russian River. Its lighter gold hue gives way to a salty, vibrant, mineral-laced, and medium-bodied Chardonnay with bright citrus and lemon fruits, nicely integrated acidity, good overall balance, and classy spice and chalky mineral nuances. It's going to benefit from a year in bottle and keep for 7-8. It's not your classic Russian River Chardonnay and reminds me more of a seaside, Sonoma Coast release. It's beautifully done.
