Wente Vineyards Estate Grown Morning Fog Chardonnay is a complex, yet elegantly refined premium Californian wine. Infused with vivacious notes of tropical fruits, green apple and vanilla, it delivers a splendidly balanced palate due to its maturation in French oak. This chardonnay gets its idiosyncratic character from the morning fog in Livermore Valley, lending it a medium-bodied profile with a beautifully crisp finish. An apt choice for delicate seafood or light chicken dishes, this wine offers an exquisite tasting experience for the discerning oenophile.

Tasting Notes

Our 2018 Morning Fog Chardonnay bursts with aromatics from citrus, lemon curd, pear and toasty oak. This wine is balanced by hints of vanilla and citrus on the palate, finishing with a nice acidity.
