Bernardus Monterey County 2006
|
This uncomplicated, mild-mannered wine counts cleanliness and good balance as its principal virtues, yet it goes wanting for fruit beyond a slight smattering of candied apples and pears. It will likely pale if paired with richer foods, and it wants drinking with lighter springtime fare.

Toasty, with spice and cedar notes that overshadow the modest citrus flavors. Finishes short. Drink now. 26,804 cases made.

As is usually the case, Bernardus’s regular Monterey Chard offers lots of bang for the buck. Dry and crisp in citrusy acids, it has complex flavors of pineapple, grapefruit, kiwi, lime and spicy coconut macaroon, with delicious oak influence.
