This estate-grown, entry-level bottling is a very wise choice in this vintage, as the wine offers classic aromas of sea salt, lemon peel and citrus pith on the tense nose. The palate is very textural with a pithy grip, framing rounded flavors of nectarine and Meyer lemon.

The 2022 Chardonnay Estate is a total knockout. Bold, punchy and immediate, the 2022 is absolutely irresistible. A rush of ripe apricot, pear, white flowers, spice and chamomile makes a strong first impression. Creamy and layered, with striking persistence, this is a total delight.

The 2022 Chardonnay Estate is a much more serious Chardonnay, offering stone fruits, honeyed flowers, and spicy wood notes in a medium-bodied, focused, nicely concentrated style. A blend of multiple sites (Oliver's, Rosemary's, Rincon, and others), aged in 20% new barrels, it's going to shine for 4-6 years.
