Finding value in California wine is almost impossible here in the UK, with import costs and duty hikes sending prices sky high. A few producers, however, manage to produce top-quality wines at eminently affordable prices. Foremost among them are Backhouse, a label of O'Neill vintners dedicated to producing affordable, yet delicious, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Bright and refreshing with a refined texture, this white bursts with notes of orchard fruit and citrus, alongside subtle hints of vanilla and oak spice. Sourced from vineyards across the Central Coast region, this is one of the best California Chardonnays we've tasted below £20. 

On the nose, aromatically complex with notes of green apple, yellow pear, citrus peel, and a touch of vanilla.

On the palate, silky and bright with flavours of citrus zest, white peach, and pineapple. Limited time spent in oak adds a touch of butterscotch and toffee, while an ample acidity enlivens the experience and frames the palate.

Drink now - 2026.

Crisp and clean, this wine can be enjoyed with lighter fare such as fish and poultry dishes or on its own on a warm afternoon. Perfect for weeknight enjoyment.
