Frank Family's 2020 Chardonnay (Carneros) is a very pretty wine done in a fresh, airy style that is hugely appealing. Orchard fruit, lemon peel, mint and white pepper lend brightness. Understated and elegant, the Carneros Chardonnay is a winner. Best After 2021
91 V 2021
The 2021 Chardonnay (Carneros) is soft, open-knit and very easy to like. Lemon confit, white flowers, mint and white pepper lend vibrancy to this steely, finely-cut Chardonnay from Frank Family. All the elements are very nicely balanced throughout.
90 JD 2019
Starting with the three whites, the 2019 Chardonnay comes all from Los Carneros and offers a classic, juicy, medium-bodied style as well as pretty notes of melon, white peach, and honeyed flowers. Beautifully balanced, with nicely integrated acidity and a clean, lengthy finish, it’s ideal for drinking over the coming 2-3 years.

Description
This wine is perfumed in brioche and baked apple, with seasonings of nutmeg and vanilla. It opens in a rich, full-bodied concentration of citrus and white peach and evolves on the palate to show structure and depth. Bright acidity lifts hints of toasted oak, maintaining a fresh and plush finish. Sourced primarily from our Lewis Vineyard, as well as neighboring Beckstoffer Vineyards located in Napa-Carneros, and Sangiacomo Vineyards located in Sonoma-Carneros.
