Mission Codename She Flies

Encore Alert: In response to the abundance of requests we’ve received, we are thrilled to bring back the incredible Olivia Brion 2012 Wild Horse Valley Chardonnay.

Winemaker David Mahaffey was very happy to hear just how much our Operatives love his Chardonnay and I was able to convince him to grant us his final cases.


Today we are proud to bring you an exceptional, elegant, silky smooth Chard from a Wine Spies’ favorite, Olivia Brion Winery. Their Olivia Brion 2012 Wild Horse Valley Chardonnay is offered to you with our highest recommendation.

This white wine is a real stunner.

This wine is very full on the nose, with aromas of fresh Pineapple, white peach, nectarine, Granny Smith apple, custard, vanilla and sweet white spice.

On the palate, this wine is silky and ultra soft on entry, the wine starts with flavors of sweet pineapple, peach, apricot, green apple and vanilla. Then flavors of lemon candy, lemon curd, sweet light spice and a hint of lemongrass appear.

This intriguing, golden-hued, unfiltered wine pours with a very slight haze, which dissipates within a minute or two. This is completely normal for a wine of this traditional style.

If you love silky, flavor-filled Chards, you’ll enjoy this very very special wine.

What the wine press has to say:

An elegant, complex Chardonnay of excellent quality. It is fragrant, very supple in texture, and full bodied, with very complex character (pear, apple, lemon, honey), and overtones of vanilla, baked bread, and oak. Well balanced and long on the finish. Great value.” - Ronn Wiegand, Master Sommelier


Remember, we offer FREE Temperature-Controlled shipping during the hot summer months. Add optional ice packs if your local area is hot, and your wine will arrive in great condition! Please write to us if you have any questions about this great service.
