Lots of grape skin, subtle lemon curd and custard. Honey and blossom notes. Medium-bodied with a very tight palate and lovely depth and focus. There’s tension and clarity in the extremely long, racy and intense finish. A blend of Wente and Montrachet clones. Drink or hold.
The 2021 Chardonnay UV-El Diablo Vineyard was named for the legendary grower Ulises Valdez and comes from an east-facing site on Windsor Ridge with a vein of Goldridge soils. In the glass, it takes on a lovely floral perfume of fresh pear, lemon oils, flint, and honeysuckle. It offers well-balanced richness, with a suggestion of decadence, and has rounded viscosity while retaining a fresh spine of acidity that propels the wine through the palate, with lasting notes of almond on the finish. It’s going to drink well over the next 10 years.
