Description
Aromas of perfectly ripe orchard fruits, flint, thyme and fragrant fennel tops. The wine is immediately steely and mineral yet dense and chewy with obvious extract and power. The flavors akin to peach and citrus are clean, precise and beautifully proportioned. As the wine airs it becomes deep and expansive, building through the palate, before it’s cut by a sharp line of grapefruit acidity and chalky freshness. World class Chardonnay for grown-ups. Serve at no cooler than 53°F and drink between late-2023 and 2032.
