More about this wine from Yountville, CA
This Napa Valley white is different from what you may think of as the typical Chardonnay - and it all comes down to oak. Many a California Chard is aged in oak barrels, giving it that smoky toasted flavor that we usually associate with this wine, but the Graef Chardonnay is unoaked, meaning it has a much more crisp and clean taste.

This wine tastes like herbs and lemon curd spread thin on a caramel rice cake. It’s like drinking lukewarm green tea and eating gritty, stone ground oatmeal cookies. Brightly hued, luminous and glowing in the glass surrounded by aromas of granulated sunshine and canned pineapple chunks.
How to drink it

Pro Tip:

Heading to the beach on an overcast, June-gloom morning.
