Medium straw in color, the 2022 Chardonnay is ripe, fresh and round on the nose with an instantly impressive array of citrus and pomaceous aromas of yellow apple skin, poached pear, lemon pastry cream and hints of vanilla and brown baking spices. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is bright and expressive, with a rich and phenolic mouthfeel that is elegant and finessed. You get subtle flavors of toasted almond and grilled lemon alongside notes of Asian pear before moving on to the delightfully lingering, spicy finish. Just under 53,000 bottles were made of this delightful Chardonnay.
