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.
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.
