Year-in, year-out, one of the best Chards of the Central Coast is also one of the finest values. Rich but balanced, it's as delicious with and without food. As Vinous says in the 94 point rave, "A regal, elegant wine. Citrus, white flowers, mint, white pepper and jasmine are all finely cut in mid-weight, racy Chardonnay that captures all the best this challenging year had to offer. Beautifully textured, with fine balance and real pedigree, the UU is superb."
For You If: You enjoy the ripe fruit flavors of California Chardonnay with a kiss of oak spice and hint of fresh butter balanced by mouthwatering freshness.
Not For You If: You're looking for something more lean/Chablis-like or as full/rich as "old school" California Chard - this is sort of in between.
"The 2020 Chardonnay Bien Nacido Vineyard Block UU is a regal, elegant wine. Citrus, white flowers, mint, white pepper and jasmine are all finely cut in mid-weight, racy Chardonnay that captures all the best this challenging year had to offer. Beautifully textured, with fine balance and real pedigree, the UU is superb."
