Chardonnay Maresh Vineyard 2023 Arterberry Maresh

Professionelle Bewertungen

Robert Parker (94)

The 2023 Chardonnay Maresh Vineyard was matured in 25% new oak plus an additional six months in stainless steel. It has understated aromas of apricot, panna cotta, beeswax, cereal and flint. The light-bodied palate has a silky texture and alluringly creamy, honey-nut flavors. It’s balanced by mouthwatering acidity and has a long, perfumed finish.

Depth and complexity define this wine. Quince, peach skins and dried lemons interplay with honeysuckle and delicate spices. It’s taut, yet full and broad, with a round, mouth-filling texture. Deep and long with lingering mineral tension. Firmly built, this needs to age. From old-vine Wente clone planted in 1983.

The 2023 Chardonnay Maresh Vineyard seduces with a burst of crushed flint stones, dusty sage, nectarine and gingery spice. Its textures are otherworldly, nearly oily yet sleek, with a sour citrus nervousness that excites the palate as opulently ripe apricot settles on the senses. Despite its weight and intensity, this 2023 Chardonnay leaves the palate reeling with tension, salty and lime intense, with a strong mineral resonance that adds lasting crunchiness. Gorgeous today yet balanced for a long evolution.
