00 Wines VGW Very Good White Chardonnay 2019

Critical Acclaim: 98 pts Decanter; 95 pts James Sucking; 94 pts Jeb Dunnuck; 94 pts Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate; 93 pts Wine Enthusiast. About the Winery: 00 Wines, founded by husband-and-wife duo Katherine and Christopher Hermann, exclusively produce Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. They derived the name “00” from numerology and say it represents true and absolute potential. Tasting Notes: "Undoubtedly one of the best Chardonnays produced in America today, this is a gripping, textured wine with a richness of extraction offset by striking freshness. Stone fruit and pear flavours are cutting and pure, limned in subtle, savoury smoke and a gorgeously briney streak of minerality. A powerful, stately wine that should improve through this next decade and hold further still."- Decanter.  "A perfumed nose of baked lemons, poached pears, grated nutmeg and fresh flowers. Medium-bodied with silky tannins and texture. Soft and supple with lovely length. Bright and fresh. Drink of hold."- James Suckli
