Note di degustazione
As with the other Chardonnays in the lineup, the 2019 Chardonnay Ritchie Vineyard was aged for 20 months in 20% new French oak. The nose has a more spiced character, with baking spice, orange blossom, and fresh dough. The palate is similarly spiced and concentrated with ripe pear and tension through the finish. Drink 2024-2036.

The 2019 Chardonnay Ritchie Vineyard is youthfully energetic and coiled, taking some time to offer aromas of apricot, orange peel, beeswax, crème brûlée and flint. The medium-bodied palate is silky and seamless, balancing salty freshness with an intense core of fruit, finishing with tremendous persistence and nuance. It deserves another 2-3 years in bottle at minimum and will be long lived in the cellar. 588 cases were made.
The 2019 Chardonnay Ritchie Vineyard is one of the most distinctive wines in this range. White flowers, green pear, lime and sage lend brilliance to a Chardonnay that is wonderfully energetic right out of the gate. All the elements are impeccably balanced.
