Sequoia Grove Carneros Chardonnay, Napa Valley, USA 2023 Barbera d'Alba and something minerally that suggestsAromas abound in this wine, with hints of tropical fruit like pineapple and guava followed by a floral note. On the palate, this Chardonnay has flavors of lemon zest, honeysuckle, and pound cake. This balanced Chardonnay combines generous fruit with lively acidity. The finish is energetic and full with hints of toasted nuts and custard.
