Lot 387
2022 Russian River Valley Chardonnay

Complex and open-knit bouquet of ripe pear notes are lifted with crushed citrus and other stone fruit and haloed with citrus blossoms with vanilla, banana and toasty vetiver perfume. Great mix of stone fruit, citrus and tropical fruit notes. Balanced on entry with fleshy pear and banana up front exploding with citrus and crushed stone-minerality in the mid-palate before unfurling with more ripe tropical fruit, caramel and lingering vanilla and citrus. Obviously youthful on the palate, this wine will be singing in late Summer, early Fall. Fresh, balanced, ripe-yet-elegant and pretty, this is a right up the middle, classic RRV profile.
