Château Montelena Chardonnay

The wine that put California Chardonnay on the global wine map. Château Montelena Chardonnay triumphed at the landmark 1976 Paris Tasting that was judged by a who's who of the French wine and food establishment.

Honeysuckle, jasmine, and apple blossom along with wispy notes of vanilla and lemon balm highlight a harmony of classic Chardonnay aromas. Green apple, candied orange peel, and baking spices anchor a panoply of vineyard flavors. Seamlessly interwoven between each is fresh, bright acidity along with incredible minerality and depth that slowly build texture and weight. The contrast between silky toast and sweet pear highlights an exceedingly rich finish that will only become more supple and dynamic with age.
