Wine Details
Price:
$24.00 per bottle
Description:
Open this bottle and you catch the full nose of pineapple, tropical fruits and a subdued hint of oak. Pour this wine and you see the wonderful gold/straw in your glass, a clean and bright promise of what’s to come. Take your first sip, and note the clean crisp tones, the apple and bright acid, and enjoy! Mark liked the clean finish, noted the acids and found this a wine for picnic time! I enjoyed the fruity nose, the crispness on the palate and found it a grand wine for our pan scared scallops on corn stew.

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.
