Au Bon Climat 2016 Bottling Note

Au Bon Climat means "well-exposed vineyard" in French but this wine isn't from France, it's from Santa Barbara County in California - the region where Sideways was shot. ABC, as its sometimes known, were founded by long-haired wine hippy Jim Clendernen in 1982. But there's nothing wacky about how Jim's wines taste. He consistently produces some of the most elegant Chardonnays (and Pinots - the Pinots are "the dog's", as they say in California) in America. These are wines that are very much inspired by Burgundy, hence the Francophone name.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose: Green apple with delicate notes of coconut and vanilla

Palate: No shortage of ripe fruit and some buttery texture, we are in California after all, but plenty of fresh acidity to hold it all together.

Finish: Medium length, finishes with hazelnut and a little honey.

Overall: This is their entry level Chardonnay and offers some of the magic of their more prestigious wines at a good price.
