Tasting Notes
Our 2023 Napa Valley Chardonnay enchants from the first swirl with its pale golden hue, and aromatics of bright lemon curd, subtle wet stone minerality, and ripe pear. The palate unfolds with a luxurious embrace of creamy vanilla and a subtle essence of butter that introduces a hint of richness, all seamlessly integrated from careful French oak aging. A burst of key lime zest adds a refreshing brightness. and is complemented by delicate toffee notes that linger on the finish. The wine's structural integrity is maintained by a thread of crisp acidity, ensuring balance and harmony.
Pairing Recommendation
Pairs wonderfully with roasted chicken, grilled seafood, creamy pasta, or soft cheeses. Its lively acidity and balanced oak make it an excellent match for rich yet delicate dishes. Serving Temperature: 8–10°C
