The J Vineyards and Winery Barrel 16 Chardonnay 2013 is a mosaic of fruit and subtle bakery flavors. The fruit and spice interplay in this wine is outstanding. Aromas of orange blossom, golden delicious apples, and vanilla crème abound on the nose. The palate is lively and inviting, with a lovely creamy texture. Notes of bright lemon acidity and vanilla tannin balance perfectly with baked pear and ginger. This white wine is an excellent dinner wine and can be enjoyed with roasted butternut squash, herb-and-lemon roasted chicken, or pasta in a cream sauce.
