Product Notes

La Crema Monterey Chardonnay is a riveting white wine hailing from California, USA. Its liquid gold colour is striking, hinting at the rich flavours contained within. This Chardonnay encompasses a splendid amalgamation of tropical fruit flavours, prominent notes of pineapple, apricot, and citrus. Underneath these vibrant fruit notes, a gentle undertone of toasted oak, complete with a hint of vanilla, strikes the palate, making every sip memorable. The wine is beautifully balanced, maintaining a touch of sophistication with a clean, crispy finish. It’s a charming choice for any wine enthusiast, ideal for pairing with white meats or seafood.

Tasting Notes

Aromas of Meyer lemon, grilled pineapple, and guava are followed by flavors of nectarine, papaya, and lemon-tangerine, with touches of spice and minerality. The balanced acidity lingers on a long finish
