“Another gem, the 2021 Chardonnay Golden Slope has honeyed orange, brioche, chalky mineral, and spicy notes that blossom with time in the glass. These carry to a richly textured, layered, concentrated Chardonnay with a stacked mid-palate, beautifully integrated acidity, and a great finish. It almost has a red wine-like sense of structure and will benefit from 2-3 years in the cellar.“

Vinous, 94 Points

“The 2021 Chardonnay Golden Slope is one of the richer wines in the range. Orchard fruit, lemon confit, marzipan, brioche and a kiss of French oak infuse the 2021 with notable textural intensity. There’s a bit more of an oak imprint than in the other wines, but it works.”

Winemaker Notes:

“Rich and round with subtle notes of brioche, lemon peel, vanilla, hazelnut and saline. The acid is fresh and vibrant, leaving you yearning for another sip. While still very youthful, we recommend either decanting to enjoy now or putting this away in your cellar for a number of years.“

Alcohol: 13.5%
