Description
As a blend of the best Chardonnay vineyard sites, the Estate bottling is one of the most compelling illustrations of the mountain. Balancing aromatic intrigue, texture and the Mayacamas’ signature structural elements into a pure reflection of the vintage. This wine exhibits honeysuckle and orange creamsicle with subtle salinity, finishing long with notes of toffee and a generous palate.

RECENT TASTING NOTES
Matured for 10 months in 35% new French oak, the 2020 Chardonnay Estate opens with savory undertones and flinty streaks before giving way to a core of white peach, panna cotta and allspice. The palate is ripe, concentrated and mouth-coating, although its lively acidity creates balance. It ends with an expansive, savory finish. Drink it over the next 5-8 years. 2,064 cases were made.
