Robert Mondavi Winery Private Selection Chardonnay 2018

The Robert Mondavi 2018 Chardonnay is golden straw in colour and opens with aromas of key lime pie, honeysuckle, pineapple, crème brûlée, and vanilla bean. Rich and creamy flavours of baked apples, poached pears, pineapple, lime, baking spices, and toasty oak with a balanced acidity and finish. 13.5% ABV.

The fruit for the 2018 Chardonnay was sourced from vineyards where warm days and cool nights provide ideal ripening conditions for grapes to develop bright, ripe fruit flavors and crisp acidity. The grapes were harvested at night and in the early morning to preserve ideal acidity and sugar levels. Harvest ran from September through to October 2018.
