The 2022 Calera Central Coast Chardonnay is a dry, unoaked Chardonnay from the Central Coast region of California. Produced by Calera Wine Company, this wine is made in a fresh, aromatic style. It presents a profile of ripe stone fruit, lemon curd and a subtle salinity. It is a full-bodied and aromatic white wine with a clean finish.

The 2022 Chardonnay Central Coast comes from a blend of Edna Valley, San Benito and Monterey sites. It’s a rich, forward white with lots of richness but also a bracing structure. Toasted hazelnut, apricot, lemon zest, petrol and slate build in the glass, pressing onward through the voluptuous, mouth-coating finish. It trails away quickly with a kiss of heat, but this is a solidly enjoyable appellation-level offering in a tough year. Billy Norris22nd October 2024

Sourced from Monterey and San Luis Obispo counties, the 2022 Chardonnay Central Coast is deftly ripe, tropical and pretty on the nose, leading to a medium-bodied, straightforward but precise palate that finishes on a clean, zesty note.

100% Chardonnay from San Luis Obispo, Monterey County. After fermentation, the wine went through malolactic conversion. The wine was aged for 10 months in 100% French oak (10% new, 90% neutral). Winemaker Mike Waller. TA 6.3 g/l, pH 3.46, RS 2 g/l. Bottle weight 460g. Natural cork. Available in up to 100 shops.Cool, fresh, elegant and complex Chardonnay. Savoury notes, plenty of ‘cut’ with fine ‘bones’ and structure. Subtle oak, layered, I would happily drink (and savour) this fine California wine. (AWH)
