Beringer Luxury 2022 Beringer Luminus Chardonnay

Like the brightness and purity the name Luminus conjures, Beringer Oak Knoll District Napa Valley Luminus Chardonnay White Wine is distinct for its uncommon focus, elegance, and balance. Winemaker Mark Beringer has always gravitated towards this acid-driven, crisp, and pleasing, food-friendly style of Chardonnay. Alive with fresh fruit flavors and hints of cream and florals followed by an elegant, textural finish, this Chardonnay wine makes an ideal pairing with crab cakes or roasted pork tenderloin. As California’s longest continuously operating winery, Beringer has been defining Napa Valley winemaking since it was founded by Jacob and Frederick Beringer in 1876. Today, we proudly celebrate and remain true to our pioneering legacy.

Tasting Notes

Luminusis fresh and lively with aromas of white floral blossom, honeysuckle and ripe citrus fruits. The intriguing aromas unfold into layers of flavor where white apricot, freshapple, essence of bergamot, and lemon curd notes are inter woven with whipped meringue, spiced Asian pear and delicate almond notes. The judicious use of French oak offers subtle nutty spice character and the bttonage treatment provides an unexpectedly plush mouthfeel and texture with mouth watering crisp acidity leading to a long, pleasing finish with delicate hints of stone minerality
