Grands Joueurs Vignerons, Mon Trajet Bentrock Vineyard, 2021
🏰The 2021 Grands Joueurs Vignerons Mon Trajet Bentrock Vineyard is a 【stunning Chardonnay, a debut project crafted by the highly-acclaimed winemaker, Heidi Barrett (known for Screaming Eagle)】. This white wine from Sta. Rita Hills offers enticing aromas of lemon peel, green apple, and white peach, joined by chalk, sea breeze, and a hint of marzipan. The palate is silky yet tense, layering stone fruit, citrus oil, and wet stone through a long, mouthwatering finish. It's described as having glazed lemons, ripe white peaches, dried flowers, white almonds, and bright minerality. The 2021 vintage in Sta. Rita Hills is characterized by a cooler, vibrant, and balanced style.
🍴 This elegant Chardonnay would be a fantastic pairing for rich seafood like grilled halibut or pan-seared scallops. It also complements roasted chicken with herbs, creamy pasta dishes, or soft, nutty cheeses. Its bright acidity and layered fruit profile make it versatile for various culinary delights.
🥂 Perfect for a special dinner, a wine club tasting, or as a thoughtful gift for a Chardonnay connoisseur, especially one who appreciates wines from acclaimed winemakers.
