This Chardonnay displays a wild level of complexity on the nose, with aromas of tart green pear, fleshy apple, Ranier cherry, sage, lemon peel and ginger swirling and dancing. The palate brings bright acidity and flavors of Meyer lemon, lemon thyme, pineapple sage and apple blossom that ricochet along the palate.

The 2022 Chardonnay Durell Vineyard is bright, finely sculpted and dynamic in the glass. Light on its feet and nuanced, the 2022 has so much to offer. Tangerine peel, passion fruit, white flowers and chalk offer a beguiling interplay of overtly tropical flavors and vibrant, mineral-laced inflections. The airy, lifted finish is quite lovely.

Generous notes of lemon curd, crème anglaise and wildflower honey are lush and smooth on a creamy frame. Accents of cardamom, nutmeg and pear pastry, along with a salted butterscotch detail, are complex and harmonious on the finish. A clear thread of acidity weaves in and out, keeping the flavors fresh and bright. Drink now through 2038. 500 cases made.
