Buena Vista Carneros Chardonnay
£32.97
Founded in 1857 by the self-proclaimed ‘Count of Buena Vista’ Agoston Haraszthy, Buena Vista pioneered the production of high-quality wines in California. Here he introduced groundbreaking viticultural practices such as dry-farming and hillside planting as well as constructing California’s first gravity-fed winery. Following several changes in ownership, the historic winery was purchased in 2011 by the Boisset family from Burgundy. Under Jean-Charles Boisset the winery has undergone extensive renovation and the Count’s original vision is being pursued with renewed vigour.
Tropical aromas waft from the glass with a note of lemon custard pie. Mango and pineapple flavors are layered with baked peaches and creamy vanilla that spreads across the palate. This Chardonnay has bright vibrant acidity, a good richness and a long finish.
Tasting Note:
This is a complex wine that coats the palate while still displaying brisk vibrant acidity and a long, full finish.
