Artesa, Los Carneros (California) Chardonnay 2016

Here’s living proof a superb Carneros Chardonnay doesn’t have to cost $30 and up.  The 2016 Artesa delivers the goods for under $20!  This vintage shows richness and elegance, with note of lemon creme and pear, baking spices and a lingering finish that’s clean as a whistle.  A Platinum Award winner at the 2018 Sommelier Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
