#40 Wine Spectator Top 10 of 2024
Founded in 1883, Wente Vineyards is America’s oldest, continuously-operated family-owned winery; with the involvement of Christine, Jordan, Karl, and Niki, the fifth generation takes the helm. From their beginnings in the Livermore Valley, the Wentes went on to pioneer the Arroyo Seco, Monterey winegrowing region. This single-vineyard wine from the Arroyo Seco is the winery’s signature Chardonnay from estate-grown grapes; the Wentes have been growing Chardonnay here since the 1960s. This is a big, buttery Chardonnay with flavors of almond butter, lemon peel, and mango and notes of cardamom and vanilla on the finish.

This finds a remarkable balance between juicy lemon and pineapple flavors and notes of spice and toast, which show a touch of vanilla paste. The harmony between these elements really sings on the fresh, vibrant finish. Drink now. 26,016 cases made. MaryAnn Worobiec
