What it tastes like:
Mayacamas Mt. Veeder Chardonnay 2021 is a sophisticated and elegant white with aromas of ripe stone fruits like peach and apricot, along with hints of lemon zest, green apple, and subtle notes of toasted almonds. On the palate, it is medium-to-full-bodied with a rich texture balanced by vibrant acidity. Flavors of citrus, baked apple, and a touch of honeydew melon are layered with delicate oak influences, lending a creamy mouthfeel. The wine finishes long and refreshing, with a slight minerality and a touch of vanilla, showcasing its refined complexity.
Why you should buy it:
This Chardonnay is an excellent representation of Napa Valley’s cooler, higher elevation terroirs. Mayacamas, a historic estate on Mount Veeder, has a long-standing reputation for crafting wines with precision and aging potential. The 2021 vintage of this Chardonnay offers a perfect balance of fruit intensity, oak complexity, and freshness, making it a standout for collectors or anyone looking for a refined, age-worthy Napa Chardonnay. It's a great choice for those who appreciate wines that combine richness with bright acidity and a sense of place.
What to enjoy it with:
Ideal with rich seafood dishes like lobster, scallops, or roasted halibut, as well as creamy pastas, risottos, and poultry dishes like roast chicken or turkey. The wine's richness and acidity make it a great match for dishes with buttery sauces, such as crab with drawn butter or lobster mac and cheese. It also pairs beautifully with soft cheeses like Brie or Comté.
Wine Story:
Mayacamas Vineyards, established in 1968, is one of Napa Valley's iconic producers known for its high-elevation vineyards on Mount Veeder. The vineyard's cool climate and unique terroir result in wines that have both power and elegance. The Chardonnay is crafted with a traditional approach, with partial fermentation in oak barrels and aging on the lees to add complexity and texture. The 2021 vintage continues the winery's legacy of producing wines that age gracefully and showcase the distinct character of the mountain.
If you like these, you’ll love this wine:
If you enjoy other Napa Valley Chardonnays with complexity and freshness, like those from Ridge Vineyards or Kistler, or if you appreciate the richness and minerality of white Burgundy from Meursault or Puligny-Montrachet, Mayacamas Mt. Veeder Chardonnay 2021 will appeal to your taste. It’s perfect for those who enjoy full-bodied whites with both depth and bright acidity.

Key Definitions
Organic
Either certified or practicing organic farming techniques are used in the production of the product. Organic farming presumes that no harmful pesticides, herbicides, fungicides and chemical fertilisers are allowed to grow the grapes. Research has shown that grapes are amongst other fruit that store those harmful substances, hence it is increasingly beneficial for your health to drink wines made from organic grapes. It also generally means no artificial or synthetic preservatives were used, no colours added and no agents added to alter the taste. If you are wondering, organic also means nothing genetically modified.
Vegan
Vegan friendly, free from the use of any animal products in production.
Biodynamic
Either certified or practicing Biodynamic techniques are employed in the production of the product. Biodynamic vineyards are generally practising organic as well. The main biodynamic concept is that the growers intend to create a self-sufficient environment that works, heals and becomes an organism in itself. Biodynamic winemaking is very similar to organic - minimal intervention, strict guidelines regarding enrichment and additives. They try to use recycled packaging and solar energy where possible. Wines from healthier vines, made without much extra ‘going on’ are expressive and represent the soil, region and winemaking style well.
Minimal Intervention
This is a philosophy employed by most Organic and Biodynamic producers. The idea is to employ a ‘hands-off’ approach in the wine-making process. This means, minimal or no additional sulphur, natural and indigenous yeasts are used and often the wines are unfined and unfiltered enabling the wine to express itself in its most natural form. Limited Allocation Wines that are limited and small production. Screw Cap Indicates wines with a screw cap closure.
Low Alcohol
WSET guidelines state that Red wines under 12.5% abv and white wines under 12% abv are classified as low alcohol. We also classify beers and ciders under 4.5% as low alcohol.
Alcohol Free
Alcohol free products are classifed as being 0.5% abv or lower.
Gluten Free
Gluten free products, free from the use of any gluten products in production.
