Davis Bynum River West Vineyard Chardonnay 2018

Golden straw color. Aromas and flavors of rich vanilla and buttercream, banana bread, and white peaches with a velvety, tangy, dry medium body and a long finish revealing notes of lemon and tart yellow apple, vanilla sour cream frosting, and carnation with light oak flavor. A rich and opulent California expression that tastes and smells like a ripe vintage Montrachet. Exceptional. Score – 93. (tastings.com, June 28, 2022)
