A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: A crowd pleaser of a Chardonnay that rides the line between lean and fat perfectly. You get the plush butter and oak spice, but thanks to bracing acidity, the lemon crème and tropical fruit flavors shine through, with the finish melding all the elements together in lip-smacking fashion. A great price on a quality bottle. A Platinum Award winner at the 2017 Monterey International Wine Competition. Score - 94 (Monterey International Wine Competition, 2017) |
