2019 Oberon Carneros Chardonnay
#47-2021
The other night we had a fillet of Sockeye Salmon, sauced and smoked from the grill, which we paired with a bottle of Carneros Chardonnay from Oberon for a great Fall Feast!
The grapes are sourced from the Carneros Region in Napa County, and have traditional flavors of apple, pear, and a touch of toasty tannin in the finish. The wine is rich and well rounded, with a crisp finish which lingers until the next sip. The alcohol content is 13.7%, and Norm’s score is 90.
This one would be a good companion for most fish and fowl, and would be great if placed next to a platter of grapes and soft cheeses.
Score: 90
Price: $15-$20
