Darioush Darioush Napa Valley Chardonnay 2022 750ml

An impressive style, with intensity behind its lemon meringue, apricot pastry and baked apple flavors, along with notes of dried pineapple, wildflower honey and toasted, salted almond. A vibrant, aromatic thread of orange blossoms, ginger tea and salted caramel lingers on the long finish. Drink now through 2035. 2,266 cases made.

Fresh and full-bodied, sporting apple pie aromas and bright but ripe flavors for good balance overall. Tangy green apples blend with ripe golden apples, hints of butter and vanilla bean on the palate. Drink or hold.
