The second of four posts from the K&L tasting of Lewis wines.
This is a classic California Chardonnay. Big, bold, buttery, can't find a b-word for oaky. Pear and apple and a bit of lemon, citris on the nose, with full mouth soaking chardonnay. It was not perfectly balanced, although I thought the acid was sufficient, my friend felt is was lacking. Still, if you love the California Chardonnay, then this is a wine for you.
The Lewis Cellar website is nice with a bit of history of the family and you can also buy.
All of these wines are just being released this week. So this tasting was a pre-release of these wines. Both of the Chardonnays were given more time in the barrel on the lies.
