J. Lohr ‘Riverstone’ Chardonnay - Monterey, California, USA

A portion of the proceeds from the sale of USA wines from this collection in December will be donated to Harvest Manitoba by KWM, and MBLL is also making a donation to the Christmas Cheer Board for every case they've sent us out of warehouse quarantine.

Producer's Notes: 

Exhibits youthful hues of light straw. The enticing aromas are reminiscent of white peach, apricot, ripe orange, and cocoa, and complemented by the palate flavors of citrus cream and nectarine. The rich texture and balance on the palate from aging sur lie gives way to flavors of vanilla, crème brûlée, and a touch of oak can be found on the long finish.

What we say:

A bright, expressive Chardonnay from Arroyo Seco that highlights Monterey’s cool coastal influence and mineral-rich soils. The nose opens with fresh aromas of lemon zest, white peach and green apple, followed by subtle hints of honeysuckle and jasmine. On the palate it’s crisp and lively, with juicy citrus and orchard fruit framed by a gentle, well-integrated touch of oak that adds a creamy texture without overshadowing the fruit. Balanced acidity keeps the wine fresh and food-friendly, with a clean, lingering finish.
