Description
The Windsor Vineyards Unoaked Chardonnay 2019 is a lively and expressive take on this classic varietal, highlighting the pure fruit character of California’s vineyards without the influence of oak. Awarded Gold (90 Points) at the 2021 San Diego International Wine & Spirits Challenge, this wine showcases the freshness and balance of the outstanding 2019 vintage.
In the glass, it opens with complex aromatics of ripe pear, peach cobbler, and crème brûlée, enhanced by subtle notes of vanilla and caramel. On the palate, this Chardonnay delivers a bright yet balanced acidity paired with a full, round mouthfeel and a lingering, satisfying finish. The absence of oak allows the fruit-forward flavors to shine, while still offering a touch of richness and complexity.
Crisp and refreshing, this unoaked Chardonnay is a perfect pairing for buttery lobster, popcorn shrimp, and rich crab cakes. It also makes for an ideal companion on a lazy Sunday afternoon, enjoyed alongside creamy brie, tangy goat cheese, or simply sipped by the pool or on the patio.
Sourced from prestigious vineyards across California, the cool and extended growing season of 2019 allowed the grapes to develop full flavors, fresh acidity, and superb balance—all perfectly captured in this vibrant, food-friendly wine. With its versatile profile and clean finish, the Windsor Vineyards Unoaked Chardonnay 2019 is a must-have for any Chardonnay lover.
