What I need in Chardonnay, so sublime, so subtly nuanced like you sometimes cannot see the layers of tulle through the tutu but the more you pay attention the more each layer shows its contribution, so freshly vibrant of apple juice but that seems too prosaic, it’s the softest and yet acid apple you’ve ever encountered. Honeycomb flounces, allspice veneers all displayed on an altar of zen—the water flowing eternally over pebbles. I am frequently happy for Chardonnay but haven’t been so taken on a ride I never want to end in recent memory
