Anderson's Conn Valley
2013 "Prologue" North Coast Chardonnay
Chardonnay
California: North Coast
Mission Briefing
Let's go BOGO!
Today, when you buy one bottle of Anderson’s Conn Valley Vineyards 2013 “Prologue” North Coast Chardonnay, you’ll get a second bottle for just $0.07! That makes this the lowest-ever price on this wine.
This wine is silky and just plain delicious. Our whole tasting panel was blown away when the final price was revealed…
This wine was made by winemaker Robert Hunt, who has become a real winemaker of interest for us. We’re bonafide fans, to be sure. When Robert is not making intriguing and beguiling wines at Anderson’s Conn Valley, he’s making wine at Napa’s Clos Pegase Winery. Past postings? Well, Robert has worked at ‘little’ wineries like Pine Ridge Vineyards, Colgin Cellars, Ovid Vineyards and others of note.
And the wine? Well, it is inviting and just plain fun. On the nose, with aromas of ripe peach, nectarine, green fig, English toffee, lemon, soft spice, and a hint of guava, and on the palate too, so juicy and balanced with sweet lemon, dried lemon peel, apricot, guava, pineapple, pear and soft, integrated white spice.
Do the math and then act quickly… Today’s special BOGO wine will probably sell out.
