Hess Select Chardonnay from Monterey County embodies the classic characteristics of Central Coast wines, thanks to the region's moderate climate and marine influences from the Pacific Ocean. This 2024 vintage reveals tropical aromas of grilled pineapple, complemented by hints of lemon and lime zest. Medium-bodied and well-balanced, it showcases layers of ripe peaches and golden delicious apples, concluding with a crisp and clean finish.
