Product Notes

Antica A26 Chardonnay is a remarkable Californian wine, embodying a delectable balance of oak and fruit. Its sophisticated palate features luscious nuances of ripe apple, citrus, and subtle toast, marked by refreshing acidity. The wine is aged in French oak barrels, imparting an elegant creaminess. On the nose, it reveals notes of lemon zest and honeyed pear. Despite its richness, Antica A26 Chardonnay maintains an air of grace and refinement. It's equally splendid whether sipped as an aperitif or served with seafood dishes. Undoubtedly, it’s a testament to the unparalleled quality of Napa Valley viticulture.

Tasting Notes

Aromas of fresh-picked orchard apples and toasty oak emanate from the glass, while on the palate, the wine offers a supple mix of apples, stone fruit and spice. Pleasingly intense and complex, with a lively backbone of acidity leading to a lingering, luxurious finish
