NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Hartford Court Far Coast Vineyard Chardonnay is an exceptional wine that showcases the best qualities of a Chardonnay.On the nose, the Hartford Court Far Coast Vineyard Chardonnay offers a complex bouquet of aromas. Notes of ripe tropical fruits such as pineapple and mango mingle with citrusy undertones of lemon and grapefruit. There is also a subtle hint of vanilla and toasted oak, adding depth and complexity to the aroma profile.
The palate is equally impressive, with a rich and creamy texture that coats the mouth. The flavors are well-balanced, with a perfect harmony between the fruitiness and the oak influence. Ripe peach, pear, and apple flavors dominate, accompanied by a touch of butterscotch and caramel. The wine has a refreshing acidity that keeps it lively and vibrant, while the oak aging contributes to a long and lingering finish. Enjoy it with grilled seafood, roasted chicken, or creamy pasta dishes for a delightful gastronomic experience.
