2022 Lewis 'Reserve' Chardonnay Napa Valley

$79.95

Spectacular aromas open with spiced pear, white blossom, glazed pecan, and lots of flinty mineral that persists into the palate. Densely constructed and rich yet focused, the wine builds tension with toasty brioche character and a delicious, succulent finish.

“Lewis' style is a supersized, pedal-to-the-metal, open-throttle expression of flavor. Those characteristics run throughout the winery's lineup…Few wineries perform as consistently as Lewis." - Wine Spectator Randy Lewis spent a 23-year career pushing personal and mechanical limits as a race car driver, beginning as a Formula 3 driver in Europe. That’s where he fell in love with fine wine. He founded Lewis Cellars in 1992, and today he and his winemaker Josh Widaman, formerly of Pahlmeyer, are making the best wines in the history of the estate. In short, these are some of the most popular Napa Valley wines Bounty Hunter offers. They’re unrestrained, voluptuous wines that consistently score in the mid-to-high 90s. The feedback we get from you is enthusiastic across the board.

James Suckling

Flavorful and fruity with white peaches, mangoes, honeysuckle, toffee and pralines. Creamy and textural with a medium to full body and rich core of fruit. Long finish. Generous and tropical.
