Bread & Butter Chardonnay 2020 Magnum, California

This really does what it says on the tin. It’s a lush Chardonnay which tastes of – you guessed it – bread and butter. But it’s a lot more than just a creamy and comforting hug of a wine. The winemaker combined grapes from two very different regions. Monterey is known for its big Chardonnays, but Carneros is far cooler, so the flavours are more understated. Bring the two together and you get this – a marriage of styles which is full but fresh, rich but refreshing. It’s a very comforting, warm style of Chardonnay. It’s packed with flavour and is fantastic with food – anything with brown butter sauce is heaven. We can’t lie – it’s not a subtle wine. But that’s why we love it, and why you will too.
