Estate Chardonnay 2021 Peay Vineyards

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (93)

The 2021 Chardonnay Estate has intense aromas of yellow apple, pastry, dried hay and almonds. The light-bodied palate begins with shimmery acidity and rocky tones before fleshing out to creamier, biscuity notes that accent its concentrated fruit, and it has a powerful, expansive finish that calls you back to the glass. This is very easy to drink!

The 2021 Chardonnay Estate is such an elegant wine. Hints of tangerine peel, spice, mint, lemon confit and a touch of French oak all grace this vibrant, mid-weight Chardonnay from Peay. There’s marvelous, tension and focus. It’s all class and pedigree here.

From 23-year-old vines, the 2021 Chardonnay Estate pours a bright straw hue and takes on more aromatic intensity, with gravelly earth, beeswax, lime leaf, and fresh apple. It offers fantastic intensity and energy on the palate, with linear feel, and is medium to full bodied. Revealing delicate oak spices and crunchy saline minerals on the finish, it’s mouthwatering for ages. This is one of the best Chardonnays I’ve tasted. Drink it over the next 10-12 years.
