J Lohr Estates Riverstone Chardonnay 2020 is a wine that stands out for its fresh and youthful hues of light straw. This wine is full of enticing aromas that remind you of ripe orange, fresh nectarine, and hazelnut. The palate flavors of apricot, ripe peach, and honey complement the aromas, making for a delightful sensory experience. The rich texture and balance on the palate are attributed to aging sur lie, which gives way to flavors of vanilla, citrus cream, and a subtle hint of oak on the long finish. This wine is perfect for those who appreciate a wine with complexity and finesse.
The wine is a perfect accompaniment to a wide range of dishes, including roasted chicken, seafood, and light pasta dishes.

Wine Enthusiast Review - Rated 90:
This widely available wine is worth stocking for midweek enjoyment. Light aromas of lemon, honey, nectarine and crushed white rock lead into a palate of baked apple and lemon juice, all framed by a chalky structure.
