The nose is bright and lifted with aromas of lemon sherbet, kaffir lime and nectarine. The palate is focused with medium body and vibrant acidity, giving notes of white peaches, crackers and straw. Well balanced and fresh. Drink or hold.
Crushed stones and flint combine with freshly sliced pear, ginger and hints of sweet mint as the 2022 Chardonnay Estate blossoms in the glass. It's lifted and energetic, with an air of inner florals resonating over a core of ripe orchard fruits. Incredibly juicy yet also loaded with zesty tension, the 2022 finishes long and staining, nearly salty in character yet still remarkably fresh. Beautiful.
The medium yellow/straw-colored 2022 Chardonnay Estate has a forward feel in the glass, with a great nose offering notes of bright flinty reduction, green apples, lime zest, and white flowers. Medium-bodied and long on the palate, it has persistent drive, with a pure savory feel and a graceful saline finish with a note of lime pith. It will drink well over the next 10 years.
