Description
The 2019 Manchester Ridge Vineyard Chardonnay is the inaugural release hailing from the furthest reaches of the Mendocino coastline. Full of expressive white blossoms, yellow apple and matchstick flint, the aromatics are expansive and alluring. Richer in style that most of our Chardonnays, the palate showcases lemon curd and passionfruit with a striking and energetic finish. Gorgeous in its youth, we foresee this wine improving over the next 10+ years.
