Bodega Catena Zapata
White Bones Adrianna Vineyard Chardonnay
Pairing this with our first grilled turkey on Christmas Day. Thinking back to a day in August when I was pruning the vines for this wine in Argentina. It has been a fun year, happy holidays everyone!

Dollar for dollar this beats any white burgundy any day. Concentrated, layered with zesty fruits, menthol, white flowers....long and you just want to drink this all night long.

Sep 16th, 2018Stones, minerals, flint, mint. Super long. I have to get me some more of this ! I had the 2013 not so long ago this was more complex. These wines get better in time so my other 2013 won't be drunk until 2 years from now at least
