3 Girls Chardonnay Lodi 750 ML

A simple, fruit-driven Chardonnay with ripe expressions of lemon, lime, peach and pineapple amongst complementary tones of vanilla, toast and biscuit. There’s a juicy quality that gives the wine the perception of sweetness as well as a slight effervescent that adds a needed refreshing quality.n n Producer Informationn n Oak Ridge Winery is a Californian wine producer and is the oldest operating winery in Lodi. It is best known for its Zinfandel with several expressions offered under different labels, but also produces a collection of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc wines.
