Wine Details
Launches with a lovely nose of lemon curd, stone fruit, and banana peel, turning more nuanced and pretty with lemon blossom and orange creamsicle. Brisk entry is layered with ripe tropical and citrus fruit riding a vanilla-tinged, honeyed beam of acidity trademark to this style of Arroyo Seco Chardonnay. Finishes crisp and long with banana notes echoing throughout. A fantastic wine from a terrific vintage in Monterey.

Our Chardonnay releases from Arroyo Seco have been the #1 best selling white wine in our store each year we've been able to offer them, and for good reason - Monterey County tends to deliver at the perfect intersection of quality and value.
A cool climate region located southeast of Monterey Bay with direct exposure to the Pacific Ocean, Arroyo Seco is one of California's smallest AVAs. The foggy and windy nature of the area, combined with low annual rainfall due to the rain shadow created by the Santa Lucia Mountains to the west, make it a perfect setting for Chardonnay grapes. Made in a rich, buttery, oaky, and tropical style, Lot 655 is aged in 70% new American oak barrels and is a delicious go-to wine for any and every occasion.

Nice Surprise
Chardonnay is not my first choice, so I was delighted by this Arroyo Seco. Full and buttery without being overbearing. Nice acidity & balance.

ABC you say
Many in my family say Anything but Chardonnay, which is great, because more for the wife and I. Oh yes, we say, too buttery and Oak-ey, you would not like it...surprising we always hesitate to buy this each year and then when we do, quickly buy more before it sells out! You have to spend a lot, like Rombauer price to get a wine this nice and drinkable.

A pleasant, smooth and buttery wine that goes well with or without food.
Enjoyed this with family over the holidays and many accolades were voiced. Too bad it is out of stock!

Light
I do like the taste with the lemony citrus and butter. Goes with about anything. I prefer a little heavier though.
I would probably order again.

Crowd Pleaser
Bought a bottle of this for the holidays. My mother, who normally doesn't drink Chardonnay, took one sip, thought for a second, then said "pass me that bottle". Very smooth wine.
