Matanzas Creek Winery Sonoma County 2018 Chardonnay

 


Matanzas Creek Winery Sonoma County 2018 Chardonnay, $16.99-$24.99, 90 points, was a medium yellow gold color clearing towards the rim.

Smells of Mandarin zest, green melon rind, Lemon meringue pie, and a hint of white pepper were excellent.

Medium-plus body managed soft acidity, and good flavors of cantaloupe and apples, with a touch of vanilla and ginger.

Finished well on a balanced 14.1% alcohol (I thought it might be a tad higher), a whisper of oak, and the fading palate.

Paired perfectly with my salt and vinegar fried chicken wings.
