Bottle no. 442. 75 cases made. 13.25% alc.

Beautiful clean, crisp expression of Chardonnay with an almost "Chablis-like" steely minerality.
If you appreciate the styles of say Stony Hill and Mount Eden Chards this will be in your wheelhouse.

Took 15 minutes to open up. Citrus, Mellon and pears. Went great with broiled sword fish and roasted beats.

Pax Mele makes great wine. While I’m a red guy, this chard drinks like a dream.

A solid showing. Not as opulent as the vinous review led me to believe but on richer end, in-line with the vintage. A bit of struck matchstick on those nose developed. A no fuss bottle for a Tuesday night.
