2022 Sandiha Wine Cellars Chardonnay, Carneros, USA (750ml)

WINEMAKER'S NOTES:

Upon the first swirl, the nose is greeted by a captivating aroma of orchard-fresh fruits and delicate floral notes. Hints of Meyer lemon and Granny Smith apple dominate the forefront, while nuances of white flowers and a subtle touch of vanilla from the new French oak barrels offer an enticing complexity. On the palate, this Chardonnay from Los Carneros offers a delightful and well-balanced experience. 

TASTING NOTES:

Aromas of yellow plums, green banana and apple blossoms followed by cereal grains, canned corn, and butterscotch. Medium-bodied with soft acidity and a hint of phenolic tension in the mid-palate and finish. Drink or hold.
