Bravium Anderson Valley Chardonnay 2019 Review
Bravium boasts four words on its homepage: Sun, soil, wind, and fog. They make wine in the unique northern AVA of Mendocino, specifically Anderson Valley. And this wine is a good example of the kind of balance wines here can attain. The wine is drying on the nose with some pear fruit but mostly that clean river rock-like minerality. The drying sensation carries to the mouthfeel along with a welcome alcoholic depth. There is oak here but it’s almost imperceptible giving the wine its needed depth
