Conceived by brothers Georges and Daniel Daou, Bodyguard Chardonnay is a wine that balances elegance with opulence. The 2022 vintage presents a bright golden hue in the glass. Floral aromas of jasmine and lemon blossom are layered with hints of quince, green apple and pear, all underpinned by suggestions of butterscotch and baking spice. A round, supple palate releases flavors of peach, tropical fruit, Fuji apple and vanilla bean. Buttery notes are balanced by fresh acidity on a long, encompassing finish. Bodyguard Chardonnay is aged in American oak as well as French oak. The American oak imparts maple and butterscotch tones to the wine. The result is a bigger Chardonnay in the classic California style.
