This alluring wine displays a lovely bouquet of fresh orange blossom, pear, vanilla and white peach, with subtle layers of lime zest and candied pineapple emerging as it opens up. The palate is lively and bright, revealing energetic layers of fruit and flowers with hints of toasted brioche and crushed rock lingering throughout a long, lush finish.

Aromas of fresh herbs, fresh flowers and green apples. Medium-bodied with wet-mineral character. Fresh and bright on the palate. Subtle white-tea spice helps to add approachable complexity to the elegant fruit. Drink now.

The 2020 Duckhorn Vineyards Chardonnay shines with style, balance, and richness. This wine exhibits aromas and flavors of dried herbs, citrus, and mineral notes. Pair it with a savory, oven-roasted chicken. (Tasted: December 28, 2021, San Francisco, CA)
