Don’t tread here if you’re looking for a full tilt, fleshy Chardonnay. This is a beauty that’s focused more on fresh acidity, stone fruit and stony minerality, with a mid weight mid palate and a crisp finish that keeps peach and easy lemon dancing into the distance. A treat! Oh, and the price… double treat!
