Donnachadh Estate Chardonnay Sta. Rita Hills 2020

This is a classic Santa Rita Hills Chardonnay that is rich and voluptuous while at the same time mineral and racy.  Lemon tart, apples, pears and toasted brioche on the nose.  Concentrated juicy citrus, pears and lively minerality in the mouth with a classic saline finish. Barrel fermented and ged 9 months in 20% new French oak barrels, followed by 6 months in stainless steel.  95 pts from Wine Advocate and 94 from Wine Enthusiast
