Mission Codename Besties
We are thrilled to welcome Olabisi Winery back to our pages. Olabisi’s Ted Osborne is maturing as a winemaker and it is a pleasure to have tasted so many successive vintages of his wonderful wines.
Today’s highly recommended Olabisi wine happens to have been made from grapes from another Wine Spies favorite, Ceja Vineyards, whose wines we have happily featured for the last 6+ years. The combination of Olabisi and Ceja is a potent one.
Today’s Olabisi 2010 Ceja Vineyard Chardonnay is a voluptuous wine that is full on the palate and fragrant on the nose. Well-chilled, the wine is bright and fresh. As it warms and breathes, it softens a great deal, taking on a soft and pleasantly viscous feel. Added flavors also emerge is it warms, making the wine even more intriguing.
Enjoy this very food-friendly wine with a wide variety of foods.
