Church Road Grand Reserve Chardonnay 2021

Humans are programmed to react to the smell of burning. To sound the alarm, to run, to survive. But not all burning is a threat. Egg-enriched pastry inflating its way to crispness; heaven. The smell of nut oils fizzling; proteins transforming. Match these with a host of other playful, welcoming sensations like a squirt in the eye of citrus zest, or the mellow stink of washed-rind cheese, and you’re safe to run toward the fire.
