Stags Leap Wine Cellars Chardonnay KARIA Napa Valley 2022 750ml

93 Points Wine Enthusiast | Aromas of toast and butter are greeted by flavors of sweet lemon, ripe pineapple and a finish of warming spices. This generous and energetic Chardonnay coats the palate through a persistent finish. (2022).

92 Points James Suckling | Graceful yet full-bodied, this lightly oaked wine gains more complexity with each sip. Aromas of pear syrup, almonds and light butter lead to nicely concentrated pears, golden apples and subtle oak spices. (2022). 

This is a graceful Chardonnay with fragrant aromas of ripe mango, honeydew melon and peach along with hints of key lime pie, apple and floral notes. This medium-bodied wine has a bright and flavorful mouthfeel full of fruit and a touch of creamy vanilla spice, leading to a lasting citrus and melon finish.

Try pairing this Chardonnay with grilled chicken with lemon aioli, grilled salmon with a cucumber, tomato and fresh dill salsa or roast chicken breast stued with spinach and feta cheese. Winemaker Description.
