Bezel Chardonnay by Cakebread is a testament to the winery's dedication to crafting high-quality wines. Located in the picturesque region of San Luis Obispo, this Chardonnay showcases the unique terroir of California's Central Coast. The wine is crafted from 100% Chardonnay grapes, known for their versatility and ability to express the nuances of their growing environment. The winemaking process involves careful fermentation and aging in a combination of stainless steel and oak barrels, which imparts a balanced flavor profile with notes of crisp apple, pear, and a hint of vanilla. The wine's bright acidity and creamy texture make it an excellent pairing with seafood dishes, creamy pastas, or roasted chicken.

"Generous aromas of lemon confit, grilled pineapple, toasted nuts and brioche. The palate is medium- to full-bodied with bright acidity and a creamy texture, giving flavors of grapefruit, lime curd and salted popcorn. Nice freshness from blocking some malolactic fermentation. Drink now.
