" Taking on a sunnier and riper profile, the 2021 Chardonnay Russian River Valley offers notes of orange peel, toasted spices, and poached pear. Offering more immediacy on the palate, this medium to full-bodied white has a more rounded fruit profile and a bit of pithy texture, with notes of golden yellow apple, chamomile, and a touch of bitter nuttiness on the back. It’s prime for drinking now or over the next 5-7 years."
