2023 Franciscan Chardonnay 750ml

Pale yellow in color. This wine has an enticing nose showing layers of citrus, rich pear tart, honeydew melon, toasted hazelnut, and mineral notes complemented by hints of honeysuckle and vanilla cream. Flavors of vibrant d'Anjou pear and Fuji apple, with subtle pineapple, citrus, and honey highlights. The round and full palate is silky and bright, with good minerality, creamy complexity, and a long, clean finish of mineral, white nectarine, and Meyer lemon.
