2023 Oakville Ranch Chardonnay, Napa Valley, USA (750ml) Spritzer slightly astringent tanninsWINEMAKER'S NOTES: Aromas of pear, golden apple, and citrus with touches of vanilla and toasted almond. Creamy texture balanced by bright acidity and a mineral driven finish. TASTING NOTES: Ripe nectarines, tropical fruit and hints of dried flowers and apple pie on the nose. Sleek and polished, with a medium to full body and a juicy flow of fruit, it remains textured and easy to drink. Drink now. James Suckling, 92 pts.
