Angela Vineyards Chardonnay 2019

Tangy ginger and white-pepper aromas will wake you right up, followed by bursts of juniper berries, wet rocks and tart Anjou pears. The wine’s crisp texture is like biting into a chilled apple, with white-peach and pine-needle flavors, and it’s lovely with goat-cheese pastry puffs. Score – 92.
