NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Beringer California Collection Chardonnay opens with inviting aromas of ripe pear, apple, and a hint of citrus, complemented by a whisper of vanilla and toasty oak from careful aging.On the palate, it reveals a medium body with a creamy texture, offering flavors of juicy white peach, melon, and a touch of lemon zest. The integration of oak adds a layer of complexity, presenting a delicate backdrop of vanilla and a hint of butter, without overpowering the fruit's brightness. The finish is smooth and lingering, with a refreshing acidity that makes this Chardonnay a versatile companion to a wide range of dishes.
