2021 Chloe Wines Chardonnay
Monterey County, Central Coast AVA, California (USA)
Winemaker: Georgetta Dane
Retail: $14 (2023)
A good example of a value California Chardonnay with citrus, ripe apple and a bit of creamy butter due to malolatic fermentation. Fermented in a combination of stainless steel and oak barrels.
Monterey is a part of the Central Coast AVA that has five smaller sub-appellations of Arroyo Seco, San Lucas, San Bernabe, Hames Valley and Santa Lucia Highlands. The Central Coast is typically warm and tempered by cool, coastal winds that foster a winemaker's desire of a really long growing season.
