Castello di Monsanto 'Fabrizio Bianchi' Chardonnay 2013 Review
It’s evident that this Chardonnay comes from a warmer area; the lemon and apple fruit has an overripe edge to it, along with fuzzy peach skin, a hint of mint, and scented vanilla candle. There’s good acidity here, but the finish is flat. A fine option to have on hand for fuller-bodied wine lovers.
