V. Sattui Napa Valley 2018 Chardonnay, $13.59-$37.99, 89 points, was a goldenrod yellow with a greying meniscus.
The bouquet was lovely honeysuckle, jasmine, and apple cider, with just a hint of wood and tangerine.
More than a medium-bodied white wine with good acidity, a round mouth feel, dry, and marked by flavors of restrained vanilla, slightly sour citrus, abundantly floral, with a developing caramel on the long finish nuanced with ginger and a well balanced 13.9% alcohol.
Paired perfectly with our roast chicken.
