"The gold standard for balanced Napa Chardonnay."
The definitive Napa Valley Chardonnay for a high-end lunch. Cakebread has built a massive following by mastering the balance between richness and freshness. It’s creamy and full-bodied, yet it maintains a zesty acidity that keeps it from feeling heavy. You’ll find layers of green apple, ripe pear, and a subtle kiss of oaky vanilla. It is sophisticated, consistent, and always feels like a celebration when the cork is pulled.
