THIS 2019 CLARKSBURG GROWN ARTISAN CHARDONNAY WAS HANDCRAFTED TO ENSURE A COMPLEX YET APPROACHABLE, EXCEPTIONALLY FOOD FRIENDLY WINE. THE WINE ENTICES WITH SOPHISTICATED AROMAS OF VANILLA, BUTTERCREAM, TROPICAL FRUIT, AND STONE FRUIT.  THE UNIQUE MICROCLIMATE OF THE DELTA REGION IMPARTS A UNIQUELY RICH MOUTH FEEL AND DEPTH TO THIS CLASSIC STYLE CHARDONNAY.

:HOW IT WAS MADE:
