Robert Mondavi Bourbon Barrel Chardonnay - Item Code: 07790
Tasting Notes and Characteristics:
Robert Mondavi Bourbon Barrel Chardonnay offers a bold, creamy texture that makes it an excellent choice for lively gatherings or cozy evenings at home. With an ABV of 14.5%, this American Chardonnay is crafted in California, where select lots are aged in bourbon barrels to impart unique character and depth. The production process blends traditional winemaking with innovative barrel aging, resulting in a wine that stands out for its richness and complexity.
On the palate, you’ll find layers of ripe pineapple, baked apple, and peach mingling with notes of vanilla, caramel, and toasted oak from the bourbon barrel influence. Hints of spice and butterscotch round out the finish, making it a versatile partner for roast chicken or smoked gouda. The wine’s full body and subtle sweetness complement savory dishes beautifully while enhancing the creamy texture of cheeses like gouda.

This popular wine showcases a diverse flavor profile, featuring notes of apple, pear, citrus, tropical fruits, and stone fruits, making it appealing to a wide range of palates.
