Product Notes

A prominent name in Californian winemaking, Cakebread Cellars Reserve Chardonnay is a refined vinous delight. A harmonious blend of ripe pear, green apple, and white peach flavours, the wine embodies class and elegance. Aged in premium French oak barrels, its subtle undertones resonate with hints of spice, nutmeg, and vanilla, exquisitely accompanying its fruity essence. Its full-bodied, sumptuously creamy texture is balanced by crisp, lively acidity that ensures a flawlessly smooth finish. This Reserve Chardonnay is the embodiment of rich, sophisticated winemaking. A treasure of the Napa Valley, it's a luxurious choice for any discerning oenophile.

Tasting Notes

For every vintage of our Chardonnay Reserve, we select the finest lots from our four estate vineyards in the Carneros region. This quintessential expression of cool-climate Carneros chardonnay offers concentrated flavors of creamy golden apple, ripe peach and baking spice, supported by pitch-perfect acidity.
