Wine Review: 2019 Peake Ranch Chardonnay

Santa Barbara County, CA

Purchase 2019 Here, Purchase 2020 Here

This medium-bodied chardonnay is a beautiful lemon color. A perfect crisp wine for a sunny day, it will pair well with a range of salty to umami appetizers. It is a little acidic for my personal chardonnay taste preference, but overall very good with a long finish. There are notes of orange blossom, grassiness, stone fruit, pineapple, and butter from malolactic fermentation. I would definitely purchase again.
