2022 | Ram's Gate Hyde Vineyard Chardonnay | Carneros Azienda Agricola Mirco Mariotti So much pine needleBright aromas of freshly crushed apple, Meyer lemon, pineapple sage, white flowers, and river rocks drive the nose of this Chardonnay. The palate vibrates with intense acidity and solid phenolic grip, with flavors of tart pineapple, lemon blossom, generous minerality, and salty lemon peel that echo along the finish. Brilliant now, this will improve with a few years in the cellar. 95 Pts Wine Enthusiast
