Natalie West made this brisk 2021 chardonnay. While most of the lots went through malolactic conversion, providing a smooth and creamy texture, and 25 percent of it aged in new French oak barrels, providing edges of spice, the wine sustains its freshness as it opens up from cellar temperature

Winemaker Notes

This wine is rich and round, opening with aromas of apricot, mango, Meyer lemon, vanilla and toasted marshmallow.The palate shows incredible depth with a full mouthfeel and layers of flavor. Peach cobbler, citrus, orange blossom, and butterscotch finish with lingering notes of toasted hazelnut.
