Carmel Road Unoaked Chardonnay 2017
Monterey County, Central Coast, California, United StatesThis unoaked chardonnay is a silvery pale lemon in the glass. The aromas signal chardonnay with ripe fruits like peach, sugared citrus and lime at first, with butter and caramel corn showing with each swirl. Peach and baked pear flavours spread warmly across the palate, and there is just enough acidity to keep it all fresh and lively. The finish is modest, and despite being unoaked, there's a custardy flavour that brings the impression of vanilla and spice. Carmel Road is a dependable chardonnay that will suit a broad range of tastes; do chill to emphasize its zesty citrus core.Tasted: 14 September 2019Tasted by: DJ KearneyPrices:| BC | $24.99 | 750ml | estimated retail price |
