Robert Mondavi Private Selection Chardonnay 750mL

Description

The 2022 growing season was relatively cool through spring
and summer which allowed grapes to ripen slowly and develop tropical and stone fruit characteristic with high acidity. California experienced a long harvest—August through October—due to heat  spikes followed by moderate weather. Sixty percent of the grapes for our inaugural 2022 Vint Buttery Chardonnay were sourced from vineyards in the Central Coast AVA where warm days and cool nights provided ideal ripening conditions for these grapes to develop complex, bright flavours while retaining acidity. The grapes were harvested at night and in the early morning to preserve ideal acidity and sugar levels.

This Buttery Chardonnay is golden-straw in colour and opens with decadent aromas. The creamy, rich buttery flavours swirl with notes of stone and tropical fruits with sweet baking spices. Oak aging creates a finish of crème brûlée and toasty brioche. Enjoy this wine with roasted chicken, grilled salmon, creamy dishes, and
pungent cheeses.
