Lifevine Chardonnay 2021 sku_2300000 cocoa dust and bitter woodThe nose is fresh and focused with loads of golden apple and honeydew melon. Secondary fruit flavors of nectarine, lemon, and peach skin offer added complexity to the nose. The palate shows layers of ripe pear and apple along with tropical fruit flavors of pineapple, guava, and passionfruit. While this wine is more driven by fruit, there is a subtle hint of mineral on the palate that adds a nice accent and bright finish.
