2018 J. Wilkes Chardonnay, Santa Maria Valley, California

Producer notes: Complex aromas of lime blossom, green apple, browned butter, ripe pear and hints of clean ocean air. 2018 was one of the longest, coolest growing seasons in almost a decade allowing the wine to be both restrained and incredibly flavorful. Concentrated fruit and minerals show on the mid-palate with a lively and bright finish. Food Pairing: Will match with both delicate and rich dishes - Shrimp tempura, Caesar salad or hard ripe cheese. Alcohol 13.5%."
