2019 Domaine Anderson Estate Bottled Chardonnay – Rated 92pts WA/91pts JS

2019 Domaine Anderson Estate Chardonnay – Organic Vegan-Friendly White Wine from California’s Anderson Valley

Crafted in the cool-climate Anderson Valley of Mendocino County, this Certified Organic Chardonnay (12.5% ABV) balances vibrant acidity with layered fruit and herbaceous undertones. Acclaimed by Wine Advocate (92 pts) and James Suckling (91 pts), it features a nose of citrus zest, baked apple compote, and subtle saline minerality reminiscent of coastal breezes. On the palate, juicy lemon curd mingles with fresh verbena and thyme accents, supported by rounded oak integration that avoids heaviness—a hallmark of Domaine Anderson’s sustainable winemaking practices.

Ideal for seafood lovers and cheese enthusiasts alike, this versatile white pairs equally well with grilled salmon (highlighting its buttery mid-palate) or aged Manchego (complementing its bright acidity). Certified Vegan and made without fining or filtering agents, it appeals to conscious consumers seeking ethically produced wines without compromising flavor complexity.

Harvested in September 2019 during optimal cool-climate ripeness, this Chardonnay ages gracefully through 2026 when its evolving spice notes and flinty finish shine alongside dishes like lemon herb chicken or roasted root vegetables. Limited stock available—order now to experience Mendocino’s premier organic white wine expression before its peak drinking window (2023–2026).

Key Differentiators: Lowest ABV in category (12.5%), USDA Organic certification, hand-harvested grapes from estate vineyards (average vine age: 35 years), and zero animal-derived processing aids.
