Tasting notes
The 2019 Chardonnay Machado has a soft honeyed character, with brighter tones of saline, Meyer lemon and chamomile. The medium-bodied palate has great textural presence, its satiny, expansive flavors foiled by bright acidity that brings an energetic quality to the long finish.

The 2019 Chardonnay Machado is another dazzling wine in this range from Brewer-Clifton. The Machado is powerful and vertical in feel, with an intensely mineral/savory profile that is so distinctive. The Machado is not an obvious wine, but rather a Chardonnay that impresses with its nuance and complexity.
Pure citrus, golden apple, and stone fruits as well as toast, white flowers, and hints of almonds define the nose of the 2019 Chardonnay Machado, a rich, medium-bodied, beautifully balanced, ethereal Chardonnay revealing perfectly integrated acidity, a layered, multi-dimensional texture, and a great finish. It's another magical Chardonnay from this team that readers will love.
