Cakebread Cellars Chardonnay 2021 is the flagship Napa Valley Chardonnay from Cakebread Cellars, the family-owned winery whose very first release was its 1973 Napa Valley Chardonnay. The grapes come from the cool Carneros appellation at the southern edge of Napa Valley, where the winery notes fog and primarily Haire Loam soils. Cakebread reports that drought in 2021 reduced yields and produced concentrated fruit.

Cakebread describes aromas of ripe green and golden apple accented by fresh white peach and light oak. The palate is silken in texture, with flavors of apple, citrus and pear balanced by refreshing acidity, and the long, clean finish carries hints of minerality, vanilla and lemon.

At Sun of a Gun Cigars & Spirits in Yuma, Arizona, we offer it by the bottle. Our cellar changes as bottles are opened and new ones arrive, so call 928-276-3500 to confirm availability, and ask our team for a cigar from the walk-in humidor to pair with it.
