The nose has a combination of baked lemon, coconut meat (not milk), lime oil, and flint aromas. On the silky (but not heavy) mid-palate, biscuit aromas peek in along with wet slate notes. Despite its youth, the oak flavors are well-integrated and hardly noticeable, providing texture without dominating the profile. The finish is energetic and bright with fresh acidity and a long after-taste.
The 2021 Chardonnay West Sonoma Coast is a bright youthful hue and delivers elegant aromas of fresh flowers, white peaches, sea spray, and soft floral citrus. Medium-bodied, it displays good roundness and delicate spice, with fresh saline minerality, Meyer lemon, and ripe pear. It’s supple and inviting, with a good, refreshing feel, and touch of almond on the finish. Drink it over the next 10 years.
