J. Lohr Arroyo Vista Chardonnay 2016 Review
This is an unabashedly big and buttery Chardonnay. Aromas include green apples, toasted oak, and a hint of spice. The oak is well-integrated on the palate, and flavors include apple pie and a hint of fresh cream. The finish is clean and surprisingly crisp. This is a great choice for someone who likes a very ripe style of Chardonnay. Drink on its own or pair it with lobster mac & cheese.
