Medium yellow gold. Bracing, orange fruited, orange blossom, hint of pithy grapefruit, snappy nasturtium/peppery undertone. I feel the new world weight and breadth on the palate compared to the next wine.... — 6 years ago
drink now…big chard from SLH — a year ago
pine and blueberries, cranberry, orange, cinnamon. Not an intense nose. Needs some bottle age. Vanilla, coconut. Tastes a little hot. — 7 years ago
Pale lemon color with aromas of stone and citrus fruits and nutty floral notes, 50% fruit from certified organic Double L estate, with the balance from McIntyre and Tondré vineyards. On the palate flavors of apple, pear, lemon citrus zest and melon, complex with mineral tones and soft and a bit creamy adding sweet spice. The wine was fresh and vibrant with crisp acidity, well balanced on a long finish ending with fruit and mineral character. Nice! — a year ago
Beautiful nose. Very northern Rhone. Palate is pretty great too, not perfect. — 4 years ago

Morgan Winery Double L Vineyard Tondre Grapefield Chardonnay 2023, Santa Lucia Highlands, California
Pretty color of gold.
Nose of citrus, yellow apples, melons, pears, light oak and light spices.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with limes, light oak, lemons, citrus, peaches, light vanilla, herbs and sea salt.
Long finish with limes and light grapefruits.
This is a delicious Chardonnay from Santa Lucia Highlands.
Elegant and rich. Fruit forward and complex.
This Single Vineyard Chardonnay is nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel. Soft, smooth and a tad buttery.
Would be nice to revisit it in 3 years and see how it evolves.
Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food.
