Cartlidge & Browne Chardonnay 2018 Color:White James Suckling 96 points -Fruity, buttery aromas are followed by a generously fruit filled flavor, smooth texture and buttery aftertaste. It's a well balanced and well rounded wine of medium body, and has a tasty finish. With aromas of tropical fruit and pear, the palate is softened by a creamy quality enhanced by the spicy oak. Cartlidge and Brown carefully source grapes from vineyards throughout the state to craft their smooth pleasurable wines. Pairs nicely with white meat
