Description
Forty vintages after crafting the famous Chateau Montelena Chardonnay that put Napa Valley on the map, winemaker Mike Grgich continues his legacy of greatness. This rich, complex wine is California Chardonnay at its best. Look for aromas of fresh apple, ripe pear, cr�me br�l�e, hazelnuts and figs. It's round, full-bodied and impeccably balanced, with a long, graceful finish.

Tasting Notes
The 2018 Chardonnay bursts from the glass with intense scents of white peaches, lemon curd, fresh grapefruit and lime blossoms with hints of sea spray and toasted almonds. The medium-bodied palate is wonderfully crisp and intense, with bags of citrus fruit and a satiny texture to counter all that vivacity, finishing long and minerally. Drink date: 2020-2025. Score - 92. (Lisa Perrotti-Brown, MW, robertparker.com, Nov. 5, 2020)
