Daou, Chardonnay, Paso Robles, California, United States 2021

Fragrant nose displays scintillating aromas of pineapple, Asian pear, vanilla crème and toasted almonds, with notes of allspice and honeysuckle. Creamy, smooth texture with crisp and vibrant acidity, the palate delivers flavors of white peach, casaba melon and lemon zest, along with underlying tropical notes of banana, papaya and pineapple. The finish is long and very clean, leaving lovely sensations of citrus and vanilla with just a hint of star jasmine.
