Product Notes

A vibrant manifestation of Californian viticulture, Raymond Vineyards' R Collection Chardonnay is truly delightful. With opulent layers of green apple, pear, and citrus notes harmoniously mingled with undertones of vanilla and clove, this fine wine displays excellent depth and complexity. Aged on lees for a creamy texture, this wine is perfectly balanced with an impeccably crisp finish. This Chardonnay has a full-bodied richness that is pleasingly intertwined with a striking minerality, creating an enticing freshness. Its enticing bouquet and carefully orchestrated, nuanced flavours prove to be a treat for the senses. The result is an enchanting blend, well-suited for discerning palates.

Tasting Notes

The fresh, floral nose opens with bright citrus notes complemented by a touch of honeysuckle. Crisp, with tangy citrus notes on the exquisitely balanced palate, this wine is smooth on the finish.
