Chateau Buena Vista Chardonnay Reviews

Score: 90 | October 24, 2023 | The Wine Independent

The single-varietal 2020 Chardonnay is made entirely from Carneros Sonoma fruit. Baked apples, spicy pears, and honeydew melon jump from the glass with wafts of honeycomb and allspice. The medium to full-bodied palate has a creamy texture and is chock full of baked apples and pears layers, finishing with a lively lift.

Score: 92 | July 1, 2023 | Wine Enthusisat

Spicy oak and good fruit concentration are the hallmarks of this full-bodied, almond and honey-scented wine that charms you with its restraint and rather mature-tasting complexity. A lingering finish suggests sipping after the meal as well as during.
