Dux Vineyard Chardonnay 2022 Kelley Fox Wines

Professional reviews

Vinous (94)

Sweetly floral and impossible to ignore, the 2022 Chardonnay Dux Vineyard entices with honeyed flowers, Asian pear and white smoke. Zesty citrus mixes with crisp orchard fruits and tantalizing minerality as a burst of brilliant acidity adds tremendous freshness. Staining and long, full of zesty tension, the 2022 tapers off with a salty flourish and crunchy feel.

A brilliant silver straw hue, the 2022 Chardonnay Dux Vineyard is pure with aromas of wet stone, green pear, fresh white flowers, and lemongrass. Medium-bodied, it has focused energy and high-toned notes, although it’s not austere and is matched with density and a weightless feel. I usually like to avoid the word “ethereal,” but that’s how this wine feels. It’s pure without being reductive.
