Our 2024 Chardonnay showcases the richness and complexity that barrel aging and lees stirring can bring. The wine opens with inviting aromas of ripe orchard fruit and tropical notes, layered with hints of vanilla, toasted nuts, and subtle baking spice. On the palate, flavors of apple, pear, and pineapple are complemented by a creamy, textured mouthfeel from extended lees contact, while gentle oak adds depth and nuance without overpowering the fruit. The finish is polished and lingering, balancing richness, freshness, and approachability, making this Chardonnay both elegant and effortlessly drinkable.
