It’s medium to full-bodied and has a vibrant, ripe spine of acidity, with notes of candied lemon, as well as nicely balanced richness with a weightless feel. Mouthwatering, fresh, and long, it will have a wide drinking widow over the next 6-8 years.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e94 Points Robert Parker: \u003c\/b\u003e\"The 2022 Chardonnay The Estate has a pretty perfume of grilled peaches, flaky pastry, clover honey, toast and matchstick.
