Roar, Chardonnay, Soberanes Vineyard, Santa Lucia Highlands, Monterey County, California, USA 2024

This site abuts Garys' and was planted 12 years later, with some tighter spacing, and Garys' is all Pinot Noir. There is a freshness here that brightens the density of fruit, hints of tropical fruits, vanilla bean and nutmeg poached pear all play together. Ripe and opulent peaches and pears have a nice, creamy texture that adds multiple dimensions to the fruity opulence.
