2023 Magnolia Chardonnay, Santa Lucia Highlands
2023 Magnolia Chardonnay, Santa Lucia Highlands
Tasting Notes
Floral aromas are matched with undertones of stone fruit. A juicy, slightly weighted mid-palate from the neutral oak barrels seamlessly transitions to minerality and a bright acidity. Hand picked, whole cluster pressed and sourced from two sustainable vineyards in the heart of SLH, this wine is an excellent representation of the region.Vineyard Notes
