BRONZE MEDAL, 2004 LOS ANGELES COUNTY FAIR WINE COMP. An almost plush wine, the easy-going '02 Bella Sera Chardonnay is certainly one of Italy's most crowd-pleasing white wines; chill and enjoy.

A good example of Pinot Grigio, the Bella Sera exhibits straightforward tart citrus flavors with a hint of caramel; a good wine with antipasto dishes.

88 PTS Wilfred Wong, "Firm, full, this is a great wine for a thick, juicy, steak."

Lovely aromas and floral characteristics. Very dry but the fruit flavors give the impression of sweetness, with a long flavorful finish. 12.5% ABV
