The Chalone Estate Chardonnay 2013 is the belle of the ball, with its gorgeous composition (and affordable price). This golden Chardonnay opens with enchanting aromas of peach, pear, golden apple, and fresh citrus. This bouquet is magical, and it leads into an equally enjoyable palate. Elegant flavors of fresh fruit combine with notes of crème brûlée. The wine is the perfect balance of crisp, fruity, and rich. This white wine will age well in the cellar for several years, and time will only grant it more opulence.
