California Woodbridge Chardonnay 2014 Robert Mondavi Winery

This Chardonnay was born on Robert Mondavi's Woodbridge estate, located near Lodi, in the county of San Joaquin in California.

It is produced with 100% Chardonnay grapes, carefully picked and selected by hand. After a very soft pressing, the must is left to ferment in stainless steel drums where it perfects many of its organoleptic characteristics. The wine then evolves for at least 5-6 months in oak barrels, before being bottled.

Woodbridge Chardonnay has a deep straw yellow color. The olfactory component is subtle, with a decisive and elegant green apple scent that accompanies more delicate floral notes. In the mouth it shows a wine with robust structure and excellent balance, with hints of apple and cinnamon that cheer the palate in a rather persistent finish.

It marries divinely with smoked salmon but also with white meats and first courses. Ideal for the aperitif moment.
