I was pleasantly surprised to have a Napa Chardonnay that actually tasted like Chardonnay the other day while tasting at Signorello Estate Winery. It was made in the Burgundian style, 20% new FO (80% neutral) and 20% ML. Come to find out that Pierre Bierbant, Winemaker and Vineyard Manager (6th generation grapegrower and winemaker from France) hasn't made a wine that has scored lower than 89 points on any scale in the 12 years he's been at Signorello. He should be considered a super-star winemaker but unfortunately has not been given proper recognition by the Proprietor. Let's try and get this winemaker the credit he deserves.
