Wine Review: This clear and light straw-colored Chardonnay from Artesa opens with a light citrus and almond bouquet with hints of Macintosh apple. On the palate, this wine is light bodied with medium acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, round, crisp, and easy to drink. The flavor profile is a lemon and stony minerality blend with notes of green apple and herbal tea. We also detected hints of spice, saline, and oak in the mix. The finish is dry and refreshing. We would pair this food friendly Chard with a chilled crab cocktail. Enjoy - KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: Artesa's Estate Vineyard Chardonnay from Los Carneros, Napa Valley, is an elegantly restrained wine with Meyer lemon and white blossom aromas, a hint of lemongrass, and a silky, balanced oak touch. It ends with crisp acidity and notes of Honeycrisp apple, stone fruit, and vanilla. It's enjoyable now but will develop finesse and complexity until 2030.
