Layers of rich fruit with a bracing acid counterpoint highlight this outstanding, beautifully balanced Chardonnay. Flavors lean towards candied citrus peel, almonds, and crème brûllet. Mouth-coating richess - almost oily - yet not at all heavy-feeling because of the tingling acidity. Finishes long and rich, with a saline taper. - HK 2022-07-21
