Cakebread Chardonnay 750ml - Item Code: 05952
Tasting Notes and Characteristics:
The first sip of Cakebread Chardonnay 750ml is like a sunlit afternoon in Napa Valley, where ripe golden apples and Meyer lemon zest mingle with subtle notes of vanilla and toasted oak. Crafted in the United States, this Chardonnay balances its creamy texture with a bright acidity that lifts every flavor, making it an irresistible companion for fresh seafood or perfectly roasted chicken. With an alcohol by volume of 14.10%, each glass delivers both elegance and vibrancy, inviting you to savor the harmony between fruit, gentle spice, and a lingering mineral finish that speaks to its California roots.
Producer Information: Cakebread Cellars
Founded in 1973 by Jack and Dolores Cakebread in Rutherford, Napa Valley, Cakebread Cellars has built its legacy on a commitment to sustainable viticulture and meticulous small-lot winemaking. The family-owned winery is deeply rooted in the heart of California’s premier wine region, where gravelly soils and cool morning fogs shape the character of their estate-grown grapes. Their philosophy centers on expressing the unique terroir of each vineyard site through careful hand-harvesting and gentle fermentation techniques. While their Cabernet Sauvignon captures much of the valley’s power, Cakebread also crafts elegant Chardonnay from Carneros and vibrant Sauvignon Blanc that highlights Napa’s diverse microclimates. Their portfolio extends to Merlot, Pinot Noir from Anderson Valley, and a crisp Rosé, each reflecting a thoughtful approach to varietal expression without venturing into spirits or non-wine beverages.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2018 Chardonnay comes 95% from Carneros and 5% from Napa Valley. Barrel fermented in 33% new oak, it spent eight months on the lees, and 18% went through malolactic. It was bottled June 1, 2019. Slowly, it reveals very pretty poached pears, apple pie and apricot scents with touches of beeswax, toasted almond and lanolin. Medium-bodied, the palate has great poise and finesse, delivering a racy backbone and loads of tight-knit stone fruit flavors, finishing long and toasty.
