The Cakebread Chardonnay 2013 is a lush white wine that finds the perfect balance between fruity and toasted oak flavor. The nose shows bright aromas of melon, apple, fresh pears, and a hint of oak. The palate displays yellow apple, nectarine, and honeydew. The texture of the wine is smooth and rich, with a long finish that hints at minerality and oak spice. This white wine is excellent now and will cellar well over the next 5-7 years. Enjoy this wine with a variety of excellent dinner menus, such as creamy pasta dishes or poultry.
