Wine Expert Note:

This Excelsior Chardonnay is a bright and refreshing wine with a lush nose of stone fruit, lemon curd, and wet slate. On the palate, it has a round texture, with flavors of baked apple, pear, and a hint of toasted hazelnut. The finish is long and balanced, with a pleasant touch of minerality. Enjoy this delightful Chardonnay with grilled seafood, creamy pastas, or just by itself.
