Far Niente Chardonnay 2023 (Tax, Shipping Included)

Classic Napa Chardonnay in bundled-delivery pricing — this handle confirms the 2023 vintage (the batch-03 parent had a handle/title vintage inconsistency).

Taste
Yellow apple, pear, vanilla, toasted oak, and citrus zest. Rich, layered, ripe — California Chardonnay's reference register.

From Napa Valley (Oakville district), California. Far Niente has been one of Napa's benchmark Chardonnay producers since the 1980s.

Dinner pairing (lobster, butter-poached fish, herb roast chicken), gift for a Napa wine drinker, delivery-bundled convenience

For Who
California Chardonnay drinkers, gift recipients who recognize Napa names, delivery-convenience buyers

Similar To
If you like Cakebread Chardonnay, Rombauer, or Stag's Leap KARIA, this is the same Napa Chardonnay register.

Collector Note
Tax-and-shipping-included pricing variant — same physical wine and same SKU (45800-06) as the batch-03 parent. This handle confirms the 2023 vintage; the batch-03 parent's handle slug ('2022') contradicts its title ('2023') — handle data inconsistency to fix separately.

Mood
Classical, dinner-table, gift-ready, Napa
