Sonoma County California

Ryan Rochioli is now taking charge of this wine. The 2024 Chardonnay Estate is a bright yellow hue and carries more structure and youthful astringency than some of the others in the lineup, though I suspect it simply needs time. Pineapple rind, almond, candlewax, spice, richness, and immense length all emerge on the palate. Powerful but never heavy. Drink 2026-2040.
