Avaline introduces its first Chardonnay (13% ABV, $28).
“We wanted to craft a wine for lovers of crisp whites that was suitable for every occasion. The result is this new, bright Chardonnay – a versatile sip that we think just might turn those who typically shy away from this varietal into fans. At the end of the day, it’s all about the grapes,” says Cameron Diaz, co-founder and wellness author (The Body Book, The Longetivity Book).
On the nose, Avaline Chardonnay is said to be aromatic and fruit-driven with notes of white peach, Meyer lemon blossom, gardenia, Granny Smith apple and a hint of roasted hazelnuts. The palate is full of crisp pear and apple notes. The mouthfeel is full and lush while still having great zip and finishing with clean acidity. Serve it chilled by the pool, pour at your next picnic or drop in some ice while you hang in your hammock. It’s Chardonnay, made chic.
“Since Chardonnay is one of the most loved wines on earth, we knew we wanted to create one with Avaline’s standards. In true Avaline style, we’re putting a refreshing spin on an old favorite for our community to enjoy.” says Katherine Power. author of Who What Wear and Versed Skincare.
To produce the wine, Avaline partnered with Tagaris Winery in Richland, WA. The winery is over 1650 acres including 370 acres of organically-farmed grapes. From soil to bottle, the winery practices sustainability to protect the soil, air and water that breathe life, and ultimately flavor, into the grapes and wines.
