Dragon Langhe Bianco Chardonnay Blend 2019
Wow I like this more than I expected. Very fun and interesting. It absolutely makes me think of a NZ Sauv Blanc on the nose with kiwi and lime zest but it also has some some Chardonnay characteristics as well. There are some orange blossom notes as well. This wine would scramble your brain in a blind tasting. Nice balance of freshness and body. Cool label doesn’t hurt either :) — 4 years ago

Napa Valley Chardonnay 2018
They greet you with their Chardonnay when you visit. They buy grapes from Trefethen to make their Chardonnay.
My experience with this is when you are mosttly a red wine producer, you need a white to start people & for Winery dinners with non meat dishes. It is not the primary focus of what they do. It’s more of an after thought and what you get is something very serviceable. That is the case here.
Their Chardonnay is very classic Sonoma...good but, nothing outstanding. Green apple, lemon, lime, kiwi, some butter & cream, mid oaked & backboned.with decent acidity and nicely polished. — 4 years ago

Nose of ripe red fruits plus black plum. Obvious whole bunch influence. Fruit influence has diminished a little since previous tasting but there was some fruit sweetness when tasting at the end of the.palate and the bottle. Kiwi expert Bob Campbell MW was very impressed and said “the best Ata Rangi I’ve tasted “ when he tasted it in June 2016. — 8 months ago
