Carneros-Napa Valley Chardonnay
Carneros, North Coast, California, USA
This wine has a faint yellow tint in the glass. The nose gives off lemon notes with some minerality and a hint of orange peel and salinity. The palate shows off a lovely array of citrus flavors and a racy acidity that will make food pairing easy. This is a delightful wine, and it offers a lot for the price.

Sunshine yellow with aromas of stone fruits with citrus notes. On the palate apple, peach and pear flavors with a lemon zest tang, light oak and vanilla spice. Good balance on a medium finish ending with some creamy mineral tones. Enjoyable, reasonably priced.

Another hit with the group that missed the mark with me. Lightly oaked with lemony baked apples.

2018 Vintage. We haven’t had this wine in awhile and I am so glad we finally bought it again. Smooth, vanilla notes and great with salmon! The price was right! Will buy it again soon!

Restores my faith in #California #chardonnay. Fresh, with some old oak.

Rich and oaky and aromatic. Spot on my taste. Buttery, big body, good price.

Great butteriness but I wanted more body out of this one. All in all a great wine to find in an airport lounge.

Very nice vibrant Chardonnay. Well balanced with medium oak. Buttery with pops of fruit. Pairs beautifully with a halibut steak.
