Grgich Hills Estate
Estate Grown Napa Valley Chardonnay
Napa Valley, California, USA
This is a delicious Chardonnay from Napa Valley.
This three-year-old needed a lot of time to open up properly. I opened it yesterday, and I did not like the nose at all. So I put the cork back, and kept it in the fridge overnight. What a wonderful difference.
Medium plus in body with medium plus acidity. Crisp and refreshing.
Showing citrus, lemons, apples, pears, tropical fruits, guava, lychee, black pepper, spices and light oak.
Nicely balanced with a fresh mouthfeel.
Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.
Easy drinking and good by itself or with food.
I paired it with a charcuterie board of meats and cheeses.
92 points.
14.1% alcohol by volume.
$35.
