2024 Summit Vineyard Chardonnay
The 2024 Summit Vineyard Chardonnay opens with bright Meyer lemon, fresh flinty minerality, and a hint of white peach. As the wine develops, it starts to display more influence from the French oak, adding a slight nuttiness and toasted quality, like that of a lemon meringue pie. On the palate, the citrus notes from the nose progress, turning even a touch brighter. Lime zest, floral notes, and salty minerality come through. The wine is a dazzling representation of the interplay between texture and acidity, as the wine persists on the palate. It is exceedingly food friendly but could be enjoyed as an apéritif as well. Enjoy this wine with seafood, like oysters or grilled shrimp to enhance the flavors even more. The wine is ready to be enjoyed now, or it could be aged for up to 5 years.
