If you like full-bodied, creamy Californian chardonnay, here is a prime example that has clearly benefited from the sunshine state’s wine-friendly climate.
Here is solid bang for the buck, which is otherwise often the Achilles heel of Californian wines.
Lynx Barrel Fermented Chardonnay is fermented in oak barrels and then aged for a further six months in oak, so that the wine appears in the typical Californian style with pressure on the aroma side, derived aromas from the barrels and a fruit profile with pineapple and melon, which, together with fresh citrus, gives an easy-flowing , successful whole.
This is a pleasant dry white wine that is suitable with fish and shellfish, with a pasta dish with a cream-based sauce as well as with the light poultry dishes.
