2024 Talley Vineyards Bishop's Peak Chardonnay, Central Coast, USA (750ml)

WINEMAKER'S NOTES:

Sustainably grown grapes were pressed and fermented in stainless steel to preserve its pure, vibrant character. The wine completed full malolactic fermentation and aged 7 months before being bottled without filtration. This wine is vegan.

Aromas of pineapple, cantaloupe rind, and macadamia nut lead to flavors of white peach, wet slate and grapefruit zest with a hint of salinity on the finish. Try the 2024 Bishop’s Peak Chardonnay with a poke bowl on the beach.

TASTING NOTES:

The honey, white flower and ripe apple aromas on the nose of this bottling are immediately offset by a canvas of chalky minerality on the nose of this bottling. There's a coconut and pineapple warmth to the palate, as a lime wedge edge adds the acidic bite.
