3 x Gnarly Head Central Coast Chardonnay 2017 (California)
Awarded Platinum Medal & 94/100 Points: San Diego International Wine & Spirits Challenge

"A gorgeous rich style, the bouquet shows golden peach, baked apple, vanilla and toasty oak characters, followed by a succulent palate that is weighty and expansive. The wine offers opulence and plush mouthfeel, leading to a lingering creamy finish. At its best: now to 2020" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jan 2019
Gnarly Head Chardonnay raises the bar for this classic varietal. This Chardonnay is a juicy, medium-bodied wine with a creamy mid-palate and refreshing notes of acidity. Bright aromas of green apple, citrus, white flower and hints of toasted oak are followed by intense flavors of Granny Smith apples, honeydew melon and Meyer lemon.
The 2017 Gnarly Head Chardonnay is crafted using grapes from specially selected vineyards throughout one of California’s premiere Chardonnay-producing areas, the Central Coast. Located along the Pacific coast, this area is ideal for growing Chardonnay with its sunny days and cool, breezy nights. The riper fruit from the warmer inland vineyards contributes rich, tropical flavors with a creamy mouthfeel, while grapes from the cooler coastal areas add mild acidity, balanced with vibrant citrus characteristics.
Food Pairing: Perfect match with a range of cuisine including Dijon chicken, pasta primavera or chicken Caesar salad.
Seal: Screw Cap - Alc: 13.5%

"It is sweetly fruited and generously expressed on the nose showing blackberry, plum jam, vanilla and roasted hazelnut characters with subtle dried herb complexity. The palate delivers excellent fruit intensity and weight, wonderfully complemented by velvety mouthfeel and silky tannins, finishing long and delicious. At its best: now to 2021" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, May 2019
"This full-bodied wine is saturated with berry and bramble flavors, pushing the edge of sweetness. It’s big and mouthfilling, but light on tannins, giving a jammy sensation that's supplemented by traces of dried sage and black pepper" Wine Enthusiast 2019
Gnarly Head Old Vine Zinfandel is made using grapes sourced from gnarled 35-80 year old head-trained vines. As some of the oldest vines in California, the fruit produced is exceptional, intense and full-flavored. This intrepid Old Vine Zinfandel has a gnarly core of jammy blackberry and black cherry flavors with hints of black pepper, balanced by complex American and French oak toast.
Food Pairing: Try pairing this bold wine with braised short ribs, chicken enchiladas or dark chocolate.
Seal: Cork - Alc: 14.5%
