Bright and aromatically compelling on the nose this Chardonnay simply vibrates with aromas of green apple lemon balm orange blossom and river rocks. The palate is energetic giving flavors of apricot Meyer lemon peel and a massive streak of acidity ripping from front to back. ? Tom Capo

A bright yellow color the 2022 Chardonnay Wester Reach is a textbook example of this vintage with a lot of elegance and a wide drinking window. From the Russian River Valley and aged in 25% new oak barrels for 11 months it takes on more glycerol richness and a rounded profile. A great wine out of the gate it captures the sunny feel of the region but it?s light on its feet and closes with a great finish. This is a crowd-pleaser of a wine and I would be happy to have this on my table at any stage. Drink 2024-2032.

The 2022 Chardonnay Wester Reach is sourced from several vineyards including Flax (40%) and Dumol Estate (15%) and grapes were harvested from August 18?September 7. It sits low in the glass at this stage with understated notes of peach mushroom powder flint and cheese rind. The light-bodied palate is soft and rounded with saline-tinged fruit and a gently flinty finish. 3500 cases were made. Published: Jul 11 2024
