Has 13.5% alcohol and only 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number L16154 on the back label with a screwcap closure. Better than the recommended 2014 (**) released on November 14, 2015 at $18.95. TONY ASPLER / 89-points / BEST BUY - Spicy, vanilla oak with pineapple and mango notes on the nose; full-bodied, richly extracted, green pineapple flavour with nicely integrated oak and a long, lingering finish. |

A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: Bright gold-tinged yellow. Much deeper, riper and richer than the basic 2014 Mendoza Chardonnay, offering sweet stone fruit and apple flavors lifted by saline minerality. This dense Chardonnay shows glyceral warmth but finishes with noteworthy lift. Drinking window: 2016-2019. Score - 90 (Stephen Tanzer, vinous.com, March 2016) |
