$60/bottle under the original label

Lot 481 is a 100% single-vineyard Chardonnay from a Russian River Valley site that’s been under the same stewardship for decades. Folks lucky enough to get their hands on this allocation-only release have the good fortune of ponying up $60/bottle, $720/case before shipping charges. Skip the lines, the markups, and the red tape.

An elegant nose of yellow apple, lemon oils, and honeysuckle is haloed by wet gravel and lemon blossom. A deftly weighted palate with medium acidity, a rounder structure, and spice is all wrapped around florals and further lemon oil. The finish is uplifted, with a touch of spice and delicate vanilla blossoms fading into a fresh-baked brioche that lingers with surprising length.
