Grapes: 100% Chardonnay

This is one of our current favorite Chardonnays, from the ever-talented Carlo & Dante Mondavi. Born from the remote, rugged landscape of the Sonoma Coast, Lady Marjorie Chardonnay hails from the rocky soils of the true Sonoma Coast, resulting in a wine of incredible depth and vibrancy. 

The wine fills the bowl with floral notes of lemon zest, crushed gravel, white and yellow flowers, honeysuckle and just-ripe nectarine. On the palate, these aromas come together with notes of zesty lime blossom and stone fruits, all integrated seamlessly with a bright backbone of wet rock minerality, and subtle notes of salinity that all lead to an incredibly bright and persistent finish.
