A spectacular, late-harvesting vintage (picked later-half of September), the 2023 Whitney’s Vineyard Chardonnay finds that illusive balance between complexity and brightness we strive for year after year. The wine opens with aromas of white flowers, jasmine and honeysuckle along-side notes of ocean salinity. This is followed on the palate by pronounced notes of citrus and honeydew melon, all elevated by a framework of vanilla and crème brulee. The long hangtimes and an unhurried harvest allowed for a pure and exuberant expression from this stunning 4.5 acre site!
