David Akiyoshi Chardonnay Lodi Sur Lie Aged 2016
About the wine
Angels most popular Reserve Chardonnay - with a special twist!
- David's Chard has racked up more positive reviews than any other we've ever funded. You fund a rich, robust, and ridiculously fine Reserve Chard from a true master!
- You empower David to treat this special vineyard in undiscovered wine country as if it were the most famous, expensive vineyard in Chablis - he gets to do extensive barrel aging "sur lie" and other winemaking techniques that give the wine its incredible depth and richness.
- As David says himself, Life is too short to wait or drink bad wine. Go for the good stuff - like a Chardonnay over 29,000 Angels love. Carpe Diem!
