Lot 486 | 2023 Napa Valley Chardonnay 750ml

Lot 486
2023 Napa Valley Chardonnay

750ml

$60/bottle under the original label

We've secured a sumptuous California Chardonnay from a blue-chip Napa estate. Fans of “Rombauer style” Chards will be scrambling to get their hands on this one – it’s a rich, classically styled beauty with the finest pedigree.

On the nose, you’re greeted with a bouquet of lemon curd, yellow apple, honeysuckle, and fresh butter – quintessential aromas of a top-class Napa Valley Chardonnay. The palate entry is both round and concentrated, offering a luxurious blend of butter, citrus, and vanilla, all framed by medium+ acidity and a touch of baking spice. The finish is resonant and uplifted, showcasing classic vanilla and butter alongside lemon oil nuances, with an impressive length that reveals hints of fresh cream lingering on the palate.

Lovely Napa Chard

"Purchased a mixed pack of Napa and Sonoma chards. Once I tasted the Lot 486, I followed up with another order for a full case. The wine notes on the web site are spot on!"

Lot 486 Knock Out Winner !

"Loved this one just the right hint of fruit and turned out to be a Holiday family favorite . . . had to Buy another case during BF Sale !"

Larry C. (5/5)

Fantastic chardonnay

"Compared to Rombauer, it has lighter body, less dominant buttery notes, more fruit, and more mineral driven. Great acidity. A refreshing, quaffable wine I can have any day of the week. Ordered more bottles to enjoy over the next few years"

Samer N. (5/5)

Great Value

"Everything you could ask from a chard. Medium body, plenty of fruit but not sweet, nice finish but not overly oaked. Anything grown in Napa sells for much more."

Dan B. (5/5)

Very Good Cahrdonnay

"A very nice chardonnay. Great for every day enjoyment."

James F. (5/5)

Brought it to our four

"Brought it to our four couple gourmet dinner and two of other couples raved about it when I saw them. It is our everyday white at present. What a Chard should taste like, perfectly balanced."

Michael W. (5/5)

Fabulous Chardonnay

"First sip smacked me in the mouth with tart lemon but after about 10 minutes of aeration that tartness mellowed significantly. This is one of our favorite chardonnay in our collection to date. Ordered an additional 4 cases. This will be a winner when we host family & friends 🧡"
