2023 Estates Chardonnay
This wine opens with a hushed intensity that immediately draws you in, like the first cool breath of morning air. Aromas of lemon curd rise alongside a note of toasted marshmallow and a kiss of oak. The palate carries brilliant acidity through a silky texture that feels like velvet under tension. Mineral tones run alongside fruit flavors evoking white peach and pineapple. Every element feels in harmony, guided more by land than hand, leaving a longing impression that calls you back for another taste. Whether you are a longtime Chardonnay enthusiast or simply exploring the style, this is a white wine that offers something for every palate.
