Profile & Story

Far Niente was founded in 1885 by John Benson, a forty-niner of the California Gold Rush, and today draws its Chardonnay largely from the cooler Coombsville AVA of Napa Valley. The wine is fermented and aged in French oak, aiming for a polished balance between ripe fruit and a silky texture.

Tasting Notes

A rich, polished Napa Chardonnay layered with baked fruit and toasted brioche notes from extended barrel aging. Restaurant's Notes: Citrus and stone fruit, toasted brioche, honeyed oak; rich yet polished.

Pairing Recommendation

Pairs well with roasted pork, creamy enchiladas, or grilled lobster.
