Lime, cooked apple, crushed stone and dried flowers on the nose. Full-bodied yet compacted with a linear and firm texture that leads you down on to the palate. Ripe yet so vivid. From vines planted in 1992. Drink or hold.

Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to present to you the 2020 Haynes Vigneron Chardonnay, a true gem from the North Coast of California. This Chardonnay is a testament to the unwavering commitment of the Haynes winery to produce exceptional wines year after year.

In the glass, this wine displays a beautiful pale straw color, reminiscent of the golden rays of the California sun. As you bring the glass to your nose, delicate aromas of ripe pear, crisp green apple, and hints of tropical fruits dance elegantly. There is also a subtle presence of vanilla and toasty oak, a result of careful oak aging.

On the palate, the 2020 Haynes Vigneron Chardonnay showcases a perfect balance between richness and freshness. The flavors of juicy pineapple and luscious peach take center stage, accompanied by a touch of citrus zest that adds a vibrant acidity. This wine is well-structured, with a medium body and a smooth, velvety texture that glides effortlessly across the palate, leaving a lingering, satisfying finish.

Crafted with utmost precision and expertise, this Chardonnay is a true expression of the unique terroir of Napa. The cool climate and the rich soils of the region impart a distinctive character to the grapes, resulting in a wine that is both elegant and complex.

Pair this exquisite Chardonnay with grilled seafood, such as lobster or scallops, to enhance its inherent flavors. Alternatively, it is equally delightful when enjoyed on its own, as an aperitif or during a leisurely afternoon.

Dear wine enthusiasts, the 2020 Haynes Vigneron Chardonnay is a must-try for anyone seeking a truly remarkable white wine experience. Indulge your senses and savor the artistry that went into creating this masterpiece from the heart of California's wine country. Cheers!
