Today’s Fama Wines 2011 El Diablo Russian River Valley Chardonnay is, simply put, fantastic. We bet that if this was put into a blind taste test with more “well known” labels, today’s wine would come out near the top.

The flavors are bold and expressive, with plenty of exotic fruits blending with browned butter, give this wine a delicate complexity. The long and lingering finish coats the front of the mouth with silk, then slowly trails away with hints of soft baking spices. This wine comes from Heather Munden, an up-and-coming winemaker who recently launched her own label after serving as winemaker at St. Francis Winery.

At nearly 50% off, this wine will sell out FAST!
