Artesa Chardonnay Carneros, CA 750ML

Artesa Chardonnay Carneros is a full-bodied white wine from the celebrated Carneros appellation of California, crafted by Artesa Winery in Napa Valley.

On the palate it is well-balanced and full-bodied, with flavors of lemon-citrus, stone fruit, and baked apple supported by clean acidity and a textured, polished mouthfeel. The finish is rich and buttery with lingering oak. Pairs excellently with chicken dishes, sea bass, and pork tenderloin.
