Antica Napa Valley (Antinori Family Estates) 2014 Chardonnay, $26.34-$34.99, 91 points, poured a pale straw yellow color.
Aromatic lemon meringue pie, hints of fresh-cut grass, and a floral vibe were excellent.
Medium bodied with good acidity and complex flavors of tropical and yellow stone fruit garnished with lemon and a kiss of oak won over a Chablis lover.
Finished long on ginger, peach, lemon, and a well-balanced 14.1% alcohol.
Paired perfectly with our Asian cuisine.

I think Antica used to do a great job with their wines, but then the winemaker left.
ReplyDeleteVG: When did that happen?
Delete2, 3 years ago now, perhaps.
