Wine Details
Price:
$13.00 per bottle
Description:
This light gold Chardonnay has pronounced aromas of green apple, lemon/citrus and minerals. Light oak was added to the citrusy fruit to create an ideally balanced wine. The flavor echoes the aromatics with green apple and has hints of vanilla and malt flavors. Each sip invites another, as the finish cleanses your mouth with pleasant lemon/citrus flavors and crisp acidity.

Varietal Definition
Chardonnay:
Chardonnay is by far the most widely planted grape crop in California and dominates California’s cooler, coastal, quality wine regions. The natural varietal ‘taste and smell’ of Chardonnay is surprisingly unfamiliar to many wine drinkers, as its true character is often guised with dominating winemaking signatures. Chardonnay’s rather subdued primary fruit characteristics lean toward the crisp fruitiness of apples, pears and lemon, but the variety’s full body is capable of supporting a host of complementary characteristics, such as oak, butter and vanilla. Regardless of what is the appropriate style for Chardonnay, the varietal continues to dominate vineyard plantings in every corner of the world. Close attention to clonal selection has made this broad geographic and climactic range of Chardonnay viable in thoughtful viticultural hands.
