WINEMAKER’S NOTES:
Heavy clay soils rich in limestone allow this Chardonnay to emit optimum varietal expression in a cloak of rich complexity. An un-wooded wine, Limestone Hill Chardonnay has notes of grapefruit and nuts, with the complexity balanced by a nuanced elegance ending with a delicate ripeness.
TASTING NOTES:
The 2023 Limestone Hill Chardonnay is expressive and energetic in the glass, beginning with squeaky clean citrus and lemon aromas. Medium-bodied with a compact frame, the palate offers a fresh and vibrant facility that sways with flavors of yellow apple and Meyer lemon before concluding with a zesty, citrus-laced finish. Slightly under a quarter million bottles were produced.

Fresh and juicy chardonnay with peaches, apricots and lemon curd on the nose. Medium to full body, creamy and balanced.
