This warm, broad and easygoing wine pillows subtle poached pears, butter and oak-spice flavors on a soft texture and full body. The wine is very smooth, almost sweet, and delicious
The single-varietal 2022 Chardonnay opens with expressive notes of white peaches, Golden Delicious apples, and pear tart followed by hints of allspice and powdered ginger. The medium-bodied palate has a lovely suggestion of creaminess to the texture, with a lively line cutting through the apple and stone fruit flavors, finishing spicy.
This golden yellow colored Chardonnay opens with a pineapple and lemon verbena bouquet with hints of oak and Anjou pear. On the palate, this wine is medium plus bodied with medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, round, juicy, and bright. The flavor profile is a poached pear and light butterscotch blend with notes of oak and pineapple. I also detected hints of nutmeg and almond. The finish is dry and its flavors drift away nicely.
A well-balanced Napa chardonnay, where oak does not intrude. Just a hint of creaminess to the lemony fruit with subtle spices. Fresh, elegant and smooth palate with medium to full body, showing a hint of oak phenolics at the end, which provide a nice grip. Drink now.
Delicately layered and nicely integrated in terms of oak, this white is seamless and supple in texture, with well-defined layers of green apple and pear. Notes of baking spice add to the moderate complexity and refinement.
