The 2018 “Retro” Chardonnay from Monterey County has a light golden straw hue. It opens with aromas of tropical passionfruit, mango, and lemon zest. This wine is fruit-forward on the palate, with flavors of pear, Meyer lemon, and green apple. This Chardonnay is light to medium in body with a lingering crisp finish. The balance of vibrant fruit, minerality, and a subtle touch of oak make our 2018 Monterey County Chardonnay a perfect complement to an everyday meal. This wine should be enjoyed young; drink now through 2021. Suggested pairings include grilled seafood and chicken dishes.
