The 2023 Chardonnay ‘The Estate’ exhibits a shimmering pale gold in the glass. Ebullient aromas of ripe apricot, freshly zested Eureka lemon, crushed elderflower, almond paste and slate meld with Tahitian vanilla and a touch of toasted brioche. Lithe and supple, the wine shows a profound depth of flavor while remaining fresh and vibrant, its brilliant fruit character lifted by focused acidity and culminating in an energetic and lingering finish. While drinking beautifully now, this vintage will continue to develop nuance and complexity in bottle for the next decade.

" brilliant silver/yellow hue, the 2023 Chardonnay The Estate is fresh, pretty, and floral, with refined noes of flinty wet stones, fresh melon, citrus blossoms, lime zest, powder, and salted apples. The palate is electric and fantastic, with a hint of salty earth. Drink 2026-2040." 98 Points Jeb Dunnuck
