Product Notes

Bonterra Vineyards Chardonnay is an expertly crafted wine from California's Mendocino County. The organic wine showcases a radiant, golden hue in the glass, revealing delightful scents of fresh citrus fruits, green apples, and subtle floral notations. Its complex palate underpins rich flavours of ripe tropical fruits, Madagascar vanilla, and a hint of toffee, balanced perfectly by refreshing acidity. The wine finishes in a buttery smooth texture, leaving a lasting impression. This Chardonnay is environmentally responsible, offering a rich, yet crisp, full-bodied experience. Ideal for any occasion, it pairs exquisitely with seafood and subtly-spiced dishes.

Tasting Notes

A brilliant, straw-colored hue hints at the radiant character of this organically farmed Chardonnay. On the nose, fruit aromas of red apple and pear are interlaced with a luscious bouquet of nutmeg and flower blossom. The rich and creamy palate is framed by a backbone of clean minerality and uplifted acidity. Vibrant lemon zest is underscored by subtle notes of toasted oak and crème brulee on the finish.
