WineO Mark Review
Stags’ Leap Chardonnay consistently the difficult balance between fruit-forward expression, acidity, and nuanced oak integration.
On the nose, expect enchanting aromas of ripe pear, green apple, and hints of citrus fruits, complemented by notes of vanilla and toasted oak.
On the palate it reveals a medium-bodied wine with a creamy texture, showcasing flavors of lemon zest, pear, honeydew, apple, and a touch of oak and butter. But there is also a crisp acidity that runs through its core, so its just a great blend of a smooth texture with refreshing acidity.
Overall, this Chardonnay beautifully represents the elegance of Napa Valley Chardonnays. Lastly, its an exquisite match with dishes such as grilled chicken, seafood pasta, or creamy risottos.
