Matchbook

Luscious, fleshy, rich and round, mouth coating, full bodied. Take your pick; this big Chardonnay has it all. We selected the best barrel lots of our Dunnigan Hills fruit to create The Arsonist Chardonnay. Aromas of toasty oak, caramel apple and creme brulee mingle with cinnamon and barrel spice. Upfront flavors of buttery toast are layered over fresh mango and star fruit. A touch of Russian River Valley Chardonnay adds zest to the finish. Integrated sweet oak characters harmonize with a big buttery palate and loads of tropical fruit. Pair The Arsonist Chardonnay with poached lobster in drawn butter, chicken liver mousse or a creamy Alfredo sauce over anything.

It reveals alluring aromas of black currant, cranberry and mocha that intermingle with spice and black pepper. Sweet wild berry fruit flavors on the entry, dry as the wine progresses across the palate. An opulent and luscious wine with the essence of dried blueberries and juicy plum that seamlessly transition to a lengthy finish with hints of dark chocolate and truffle tannins.

GOLD MEDAL Riverside International Wine Comp (2013 vintage). The Matchbook Cabernet is soft and textured; shows plenty of red fruit flavors and has nice substance on the palate.

Red fruit and earthy flavors. Soft tannins substantive on the palate with light tannins in the finish.

88 PTS. WINE ENTHUSIAST (2013 vintage). The Matchbook Chardonnay shows beautiful aromas of apples, mango and notes of sweet oak; well-balanced with bright citrus in the end.
