Napa Valley Chardonnay

If you fancy a bit of butter then this one might be right up your alley. It's not a butter bomb though, and it's pretty well made. The nose is buttery but shows as well nice lemony and oaky notes. The palate shows some good acid drive, and that acid drive is what makes it a great tasting experience, actually. Nice buttery touches and texture all along, some nice lemony notes, a bit of grip in the rear. It's quite wide and ample but not as thick as what I was expecting. The finish is not very long and shows some oaky notes that make a come back, among other buttery and lemony notes. It's well made, clearly overpriced here (they ask for 50+ USD in equivalent local currency before discount) but it's a nice, enjoyable pour even on its own.

Pale yellow hue. Aromas of apple pie crust, butter, caramel, peach, pear, toast. Pronounced stone fruit on the palate. Medium bodied with plus acidity. Long finish. Lovely wine, but the finish smacks a bit too much of oak.
