2019 Edna Valley Central Coast Chardonnay
#49-2022

I put a lot of stock in a winery's ability to consistently produce good quality wines, and in the last fifteen or so years, the folks at Edna Valley have had one better than average Chardonnay after another.  The 2019 Central Coast Chardonnay is an excellent example of how to make a good Chardonnay for less than twenty dollars.

The scent is predominately apple, while the flavor is mostly pear, with a little citrus and a hint of peach.  The finish is clean with a little bit of fruit lingering on the palate until the next sip.  The alcohol content is 13.9%, and Norm's score is 90.

We really enjoyed this one with a seafood combo of bay scallops and cubed cod fillets, tossed with tomatoes, peppers and cilantro over a bed of jasmine rice.  A Greek salad rounded out the affair, with a resounding applause for both the food and the wine!

score: 90
price: $12 - $15
