Avis professionnels

Picked 9 and 10 August, so saw a day and half of smoke and was therefore treated differently from usual. Lees added.
Lively and lemony and racy. Remarkably reminiscent of an Hautes-Côtes Blanc. Lovely texture and great freshness. Very good!

The 2020 Chardonnay Seven Springs Vineyard is showing beautifully at this stage. It has slowly unfolding aromas of flint, roasted almonds, baked apples and apricot with spicy undertones. The medium-bodied palate offers expansive, savory flavors delivered in a satiny texture and energized by firm acidity, and it has a long, honeyed finish driven by a touch of textural grip. Due to the challenges of the vintage, it will be best enjoyed over the next 3-5 years.
