Bacigalupi Vineyard Chardonnay

This is holding up surprisingly well. Nose present roasted pineapple, rosemary and hints of bread. Palette is balanced and restrained. Sweet notes and soft acidity caress the mid palate. Glorious combination with outstanding pizza. Bivio, Montclair.

My selection and it’s gray around the gills. 14’s are risky at this point.

I always love this chard! My first time trying the ‘14...big and powerful as expected. Toasted oak up front with ripe stone fruit on the back to add to the complexity. Honeydew, honeyed cashews and creme brûlée. Lots of signature Bacigalupi notes here in spades.

Doing this vintage a disservice if you don’t decant it for a couple hours,

Needs the 3 hour decant that the 2010 needed a few years ago, Awesome White burgundy from CA

One of the best Cali Chards out there.
