BONANNO CHARDONNAY 2023, Napa

That crisp green apple and ripe lemon hit right away, but the finish with just a touch of vanilla is what really makes it. I’m already planning to grab another bottle for next weekend’s dinner.

The nose really delivers on those white flowers and peach notes—it’s almost like spring in a glass. The finish surprised me with that clean, slightly vanilla edge that lingers just enough.

Opened this with dinner last night and the apple blossom on the nose is just lovely — it's bright but not sharp. The finish is clean and long, with just that whisper of vanilla that makes you want another glass. Honestly, this might be my new go-to for a weeknight pour.
