1924 Double Gold Buttery Chardonnay 2024 California

Characteristics 100% Chardonnay, picked at optimum ripeness, lively, balanced with an opulent finish. Aromas of toasted almonds, vanilla bean, movie popcorn and flavours of biscuits, ripe fig and mango, lightly roasted marshmallows. Partially fermented and aged on French and American oak. Food Pairing Superb with fish cooked in butter (e.g. sole meunière), roast chicken, poached salmon, seared scallops, mushroom risotto and caesar salad. About this winery The name "1924" refers to the American Prohibition era and the year the Delicato family, owners of this brand, planted the first vineyards in Lodi, California. Lodi is warm enough to produce beautifully ripe grapes, while cool nights add extra depth of flavour, the best of both worlds. What truly sets 1924 Wines apart is the barrel ageing. Traditional oak barrels for the Buttery Chardonnay and some reds get Bourbon and Whiskey barrel ageing. Surprising, unique and incredibly flavourful.
