Tasting notes
The 2019 Chardonnay Lancel Creek Vineyard has soft aromas of white peach, quince, chamomile, roasted almonds and meringue. The medium-bodied palate surprises with its generous, creamy fruit and expansive, savory flavors. It has a silky, seamless frame and gains intensity on the long finish. It unfolds slowly as it spends time in the glass and will benefit from a few years in bottle or some time in a decanter.

The 2019 Chardonnay Lancel Creek Vineyard is ripe with sun-kissed fruits of salted pineapple, lilacs, and lemon curd. The palate is full of ripe, sweet fruits of peaches, orange blossom, and caramel apple. Generous now, it can be drunk any time over the next 10 years.
The 2019 Chardonnay Lancel Creek is one of the most precise wines in the range. Bright and translucent, the Lancel Creek is done in a slightly more linear style than the other Chardonnays, and yet has plenty of mid-palate richness and body. Lemon confit, white flowers, mint and white pepper lend brightness throughout.
