Marc Cellars California Chardonnay 2021
Another Californian for the collection.
"Richly fruited and immediately appealing, the bouquet shows golden peach, baked fig, French vanilla and hazelnut aromas, followed by a delightfully flavoursome palate delivering excellent weight and creamy mouthfeel. It's supple and velvety with a lingering delicious finish. At its best: now to 2025." 5 Stars & 93/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, May 2023
"Elegant and well-balanced, our Chardonnay offers aromas of Golden Delicious apple, orange blossom and guava with hints of vanilla and baking spice. These lovely characteristics flow through to the palate leading to a crisp and refreshing finish.
Our Chardonnay grapes are sourced from several cool climate growing regions in California. Each area lends unique flavor components and structure to the final blend. Grapes were harvested during the cooler night and morning hours to preserve the fruit’s delicate flavors. After a gentle pressing, the must is fermented in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks with Burgundian yeasts. A small portion of the blend underwent malolactic fermentation adding a creamy note and softening the mouthfeel. Winery
