Cambria Katherine's Vineyard Chardonnay (2021)

** #10 of Wine Spectator's Top 10 Values of 2021 **

Katherine’s Vineyard, named for Katie Jackson in 1986, consists of ancient soils with fossilized seashells, shale, limestone and sand, with fog swept vines that have endured since the 1970s. Fresh fruit and floral aromas dominate the nose and palate; white peach, lemon zest, pear, granny smith apple and citrus blossoms. The oak influence creates a nice mid-palate that balances nicely with the bright acidity that lingers.

Tasting Notes

90 Wine Spectator
Remarkably balanced, with details of fresh, crisp apple, citrus and pear that mingle with salted butter pastry and touches of brown sugar on a supple, creamy frame. Reveals a touch of lemongrass on the finish.
