90pts James Suckling
Lemon-curd, ripe-apricot and toasted-hazelnut aromas. It’s full-bodied and rich with lots of ripe fruit and praline.
90pts Wilfred Wong
The 2019 Rombauer Vineyards Chardonnay has been a time-tested and well-loved wine. This wine is lovely from start to finish. Enjoy its beautiful and pleasing aromas and flavors of ripe apples, oaky notes, and suggestions of butter with grilled chicken thighs and caramelized onions.

Winemaker Notes
Pale light yellow with a green hue. Aromas of ripe peach, honeydew, and lemon rind intertwine seamlessly with vanilla and spice. The aromas are followed by flavors of lychee and yellow peach which meld perfectly with the cream texture, vanilla and slight butter. The finish builds with more peach and spice, while the acidity maintains the freshness and structure. The wine will continue to gain weight and depth over the next 12 months, revealing additional notes of nectarine, butter and spice.
Pair this with tuna-avocado burgers, lobster rolls and fettuccine with salmon and asparagus.
