Stags' Leap Napa Valley 2019 Chardonnay, $26.99-$32.99, 93 points, was a medium straw-yellow color and clearing only at the rim.
The bouquet was a balance of passion fruit, green melon rind, Chardonnay grapes lingering in the sun, and a cornucopia of citrus fruit.
A not quite medium-bodied dry white wine with good acidity, minerality, evolutionary flavors with the barest whisper of oak.
Finished long, a bit tart, lean, and with a well-balanced 13.5% alcohol.
Paired perfectly with my spinach pie, and okay with my Moroccan sardines.
