PlumpJack Winery Reserve Chardonnay, Napa Valley, USA 2023

The cool vintage preserved the bright aromatics and vibrant acidity, resulting in a Chardonnay with great complexity, purity, and precision. The nose opens with lemon, lime, Granny Smith apple, and wet stone, layered with cantaloupe, honeydew, nectarine, and honeysuckle. The subtle oak influence adds cinnamon and nutmeg. The palate is rich and round, with lively acidity that evokes tangy, creamy lemon custard, giving it great length, energy, and life.
