Wine Description
The Bodyguard Chardonnay 2020, conceived by winemaker Daniel Daou, embodies the quintessential style of a California chardonnay. This Bodyguard 2020 wine offers a rich and buttery mouthfeel, cascading with flavors that reflect the warmer climate of California. The deeper golden color of this vintage comes from the sun-kissed vineyards of the famous Santa Barbara appellation, benefiting from the proximity to the Pacific Ocean.

Subtle hints of Bartlett pear, star fruit, hibiscus, and nutmeg add to the elegant and floral bouquet. This wine’s smooth and silky texture cascades across the palate with enticing flavors of spiced pear, Granny Smith apple, golden kiwi, and honeysuckle, all underlain by mouthwatering minerality. Secondary layers of white peach and toasty oak, hazelnut, honeydew melon, and citrus zest provide a remarkable depth to the tasting experience. The crisp and clean finish shows remarkable length with lingering notes of lemon curd and pineapple.ABV: 14.7%
The Bodyguard Chardonnay 2020 uses grapes from the famous Santa Barbara appellation, which are cold fermented to maintain the aromatic precursors. This process, combined with the use of both French and American oak, delivers a creamy and buttery mouthfeel. The warmer climate of California also provides deeper golden color, aromas of vanilla, cinnamon, and coconut, and flavors that range from mango and banana to butter and cream. The terroir expresses itself very accurately in the glass, making each sip a true reflection of its origins.
