Wente Vineyards
Riva Ranch Single Vineyard Chardonnay
Arroyo Seco, Central Coast, California, USA
Arroyo Seco AVA in Monterey County.Bright yellow. Nose of tropical fruit with even a hint of lychee (apparently there is 2% of gewurztraminer in the blend). Ripe, round and simple, on the sweetish side, but good acidity and well-integrated oak.
