@Delectable this is Wedding Rock Single Vineyard Chardonnay

Stellar. I would blind this for a warm Puligny-Montrachet vintage. Delicate but grounded in spiraling flavors of grilled pineapple, white peach, and honeysuckle. All the oak nuances elevate the experience without making the viscosity thick or overpowering. Notes of creme fraiche, buttered toast, and creme brûlée encapsulate the palate and finish. All day you pick up flint and chalk with wild mushrooms. You get all the creaminess without losing freshness and acidity. I’m in love with this.

Dijon Clone planted in clay and limestone. 66% spontaneous fermentation and aged 16 months in French Oak.

@Dana Dungan thank you so much for this!
