This is attractive with sliced pears and glazed lemons with salted caramel, raw almonds and cream. Medium- to full-bodied, so lively and textural at the same time. It is clean and pure with crunchy stone fruit and chamomile aromas on offer, with a flavorful, creamy finish. 100% barrel fermented with native yeast.

This is a medium-bodied treat, beginning with its big time, hunger-inducing butter, seared scallops, tarragon and lemon aromas. Equally rich decadent lemon butter, brioche and fried sage flavors seal the deal. Pair this with a bucket of popcorn and any Jason Statham film that's not “Ghosts of Mars.”

All barrel fermented and aged 10-12 months on lees, the 2021 Chardonnay Ch is vivid gold-hued and has a rich, layered nose of ripe lemon curd, banana, white flowers, and a subtly spicy bouquet. This carries to a classy, balanced, elegant Chardonnay with plenty of texture, good acidity, and a clean finish.

Softly mineral with subdued fruit tones, the 2021 Ch Chardonnay offers aromas of yellow apples and citrus blossoms with hints of oak and rocky earth on the nose. Medium-bodied, the wine is a fantastic buy at this price, offering a balanced structure, succulent acidity and persistent flavors of citrus panna cotta and lemon pastry cream and a bright, succulent finish. Over half a million bottles were produced from 100% barrel-fermented Chardonnay that aged 10 months on the lees in 20% new French oak.
