Experience the luxurious craftsmanship of DAOU Vineyards’ 2020 Bodyguard Chardonnay, sourced from Santa Barbara’s acclaimed Central Coast vineyards. This California white wine envelops your senses with an opulent bouquet of golden apple, buttered toast, and lilac blossoms, layered with subtle hints of Bartlett pear and star fruit.

On the palate, discover a vibrant tapestry of spiced pear, crisp Granny Smith apple, and golden kiwi – all elevated by mouthwatering minerality and silky texture. Secondary nuances of white peach, toasted hazelnut, and honeydew melon unfold gracefully, culminating in a refreshing finish brightened by lemon curd and pineapple zest.

Recognized with 90 Points by Wine Enthusiast for its “bright citrus tonic flavor” and “chiseled stone aromas,” this full-bodied Chardonnay (14.5% ABV) balances richness with remarkable acidity. Perfect for pairing with seafood or creamy pasta dishes, it showcases why Central Coast Chardonnays remain coveted by collectors seeking complex yet approachable premium wines.
