Estate Monte Bello Vineyard Chardonnay

Almond butter.

Honeydew melon and pineapple everywhere.. broad and expansive on the mid-palate. Moderate and honied sweetness is tucked in with complementary acidity. A beauty.

Heavy reduction day 1, day 2, really great! Agree with most reviews on here. Very nice.

Long. Vanilla , touch oaky, banana for days. Big wine but in a balanced way

Noticeable oak, but I enjoy some overt (but in check) oak with my Cali Chard. Old style.

Secondary flavors. At its peak. Smooth

They make a Chardonnay? Word.

Who knew a Ridge Chardonnay could age so well...2010 shows such great depth and layers...virtual tasting with Ridge, tasted the 2018, 2017 and 2010. This score is for the 2010, one of the best New World Chardonnay’s I have tasted.

It was a warm afternoon, finally, today. We're grilling oysters and pairing wines!

Prior notes apply, but now with Flint!

White Burgundy quality from California. At a fraction of the cost.
