d'Arenberg, The Olive Grove Chardonnay, 2024 (Case) Mendocino County full of red plums andA modern style of Chardonnay, with great balance between crisp and savoury fruit, and subtly integrated oak. Aromas of nectarine, green apple, vanilla and roasted nuts dominate on the nose, whilst the palate has an initial hit of creaminess, followed by stone fruit, white flowers and a hint of sea spray. Nutty nuances and vanilla notes perpetuate through a long, dry finish.
