 Introducing the 2010 Far Niente Chardonnay
Love Far Niente Chardonnay? Then you will be happy to know that we are on the cusp of releasing our 2010 vintage. The wine shows all of the characteristics of a classic Far Niente Chardonnay: notes of citrus, honeysuckle and toasted nuts with a hint of minerality and richness on the midpalate—a pleasure to be sure.
Why not plan to visit Far Niente after the New Year and taste the 2010 Far Niente Chardonnay? As you know, there’s nothing quite like tasting Far Niente wines on the estate where they are produced. However, if you’re unable to see us in the next few weeks, you can acquire the newest Chardonnay vintage online or by calling the winery at (707) 944-2861.
 Last-minute Holiday Gifts
You’ve made your list; you’ve checked it twice—and if you’re like us there are still a few people you would like to acknowledge with gifts this year. May we suggest the gift of wine? Wine inspires the gathering together of friends and family, wonderful meals and new memories—in short, wine makes the perfect gift!
Our online gift catalog is full of gift-giving ideas. Each gift is beautifully packaged and sent directly to the lucky recipient. Nothing could be easier for last-minute holiday shopping.
Place your order by December 20 to ensure delivery by December 23. You may order online or call Far Niente at (707) 944-2861 or Nickel & Nickel at (707) 967-9600 for personal assistance.
 2012 Wine Club Calendar
It’s hard to believe the new year is just around the corner, but, as always, we have some fantastic events planned. Filled with classic, much-loved events, such as our Cabernet release day, as well as a new event (see October’s harvest party at Nickel & Nickel), we’re looking forward to sharing these special occasions with you.
