| Description: | Tasting Notes\r\nChateau Buena Vista Carneros Chardonnay 2021 is a luxurious wine that is sure to please even the most discerning of palates. It opens with an alluring aroma of ripe peaches, honeycomb, and vanilla, followed by a burst of tropical fruit flavors, including pineapple, guava, and citrus. On the palate, this wine offers a rich and creamy texture that is perfectly balanced by a bright acidity that keeps the wine refreshing and easy to drink. The finish is long and full, leaving a lingering impression of toasted oak and spice.\r\n\r\nCrafted with care from the finest Chardonnay grapes grown in the Carneros AVA, this wine showcases the region's unique terroir and climate. The wine's complex flavor profile is the result of a meticulous winemaking process that includes barrel fermentation, lees stirring, and aging in French oak barrels.\r\nAbout Buena Vista Winery\r\nBuena Vista Winery has a rich, delicious heritage as the first premium-and certainly the most colorful of all of the wineries in California. And its founder, the self-proclaimed \u201cCount of Buena Vista,\u201d Agoston Haraszthy, was a vivacious and eccentric pioneer with a veritable love and unending commitment to California wine.\r\nSurrounded by his own tales of intrigue and political exile, The Count immigrated from Hungary in 1842 in pursuit of opportunity and freedom in the burgeoning American West. Following the forty-niners in search of gold in the hills of Northern California, Haraszthy sought \u201cpurple gold\u201d \u2013 the perfect \u2018terroir\u2019 for exceptional wine. He ultimately settled in Sonoma, the birthplace of California and the capital of the short-lived California Republic, where he founded Buena Vista Winery in 1857.\r\nA committed farmer, an experimental innovator and vintner, a respected author, a shrewd businessman, and a brilliant and incredibly zealous promoter, The Count is considered California\u2019s most acclaimed and flamboyant vinicultural pioneer and evangelist.\r\nDespite his abrupt death in 1869 in a crocodile-infested river in the jungles of Nicaragua and following the challenges of the depression, prohibition, and phylloxera infestation; his beloved Buena Vista Winery has not only endured but also prospered. Boisset Family Estates, a family with a true love and respect for Buena Vista, is passionately committed to continuing the imaginative vision and unrivaled legacy first created by The Count 150 years ago.
