"The 2023 Chardonnay Oakville is brisk and refreshing. Lemon peel, white flowers, marzipan and mint are nicely delineated in this aromatically high-toned Chardonnay. Blocking the malolactic fermentation keeps this bright and light on its feet. Pretty tropical notes linger on the close."

"Medium gold-hued, the 2023 Chardonnay offers an outstanding nose of riper stone fruits, caramelized citrus, brioche, and honeyed floral notes. Aged 10 months on lees, it's medium-bodied and nicely concentrated on the palate, with good acidity, integrated oak, and a good finish. This powerful, concentrated Chardonnay will shine on the dinner table and should keep for 5-7 years given its concentration and bright acidity. Drink 2025-2032."
