40th Anniversary Chardonnay
4.4 Vivino Stars (1500+ ratings)
The verdict is in—40 years after the world-famous Judgement of Paris Tasting, Chateau Montelena is still crushing it. France’s best critics confused the ’76 Montelena Napa Chardonnay for Premier Cru white Burgundy and with the brilliant 2016 release, we bet they’d do it again. Grapes grown in old ocean sediments and alluvial deposits near the base of Mt. Veeder delivered a “gorgeous” wine says Vinous, which called it “striking for its freshness and understated intensity,” “crystalline tension and overall energy.” No longer available at the winery. Get it while you can.
