Top Wines Under $10

2006 A by Acacia Chardonnay

WHITE

Acacia
2006 A by Acacia Chardonnay

The Acacia winery is set just two miles from San Francisco's San Pablo Bay, in the heart of Napa Valley's Carneros wine region. This California Chardonnay expresses bright notes of citrus, pineapple, pear and tropical fruit that perfume the aromas. Its flavors are beautifully balanced—hints of spice and vanilla oak weave through the fruit, and then linger on the finish. Crisp natural acidity structures the flavors, balanced with rich, silky texture from sur lie (on lees) aging.

Rating: 13/20
Price:
$10
