Unquestionably one of the best Chardonnays I've ever tasted. Silken, round and full mouth feel yet with a tingling acidic undertone giving it tension and complexity. Utterly delicious and seamless wine with ever-evolving nuances of lemon curd, yellow peach, vanilla, orange blossoms, buttered toast, subtle spiciness. Finish has that coastal mineral/saline touch on top of very persistent fruit notes. - HK 2022-04-02
