Description

The 2018 Chardonnay Bien Nacido Vineyard is super-expressive. Apricot, tangerine oil, chamomile and light tropical accents grace this mid-weight Chardonnay with exotic flair that adds to its appeal. I would prefer to drink the 2018 over the next handful of years, as this appears to be a somewhat light vintage.

Drink Guide

Wine, for the most part, is a peculiar beverage and everything form the way the bottle is stored, to the way its opened; the way the cork is pulled, the decanter thats used and the glass its served in, can have an immense effect on the outcome.
