Doesn’t have the length of the 2012 Ten Minutes by Tractor single vineyard Chardonnays but it’s still a very good rendition of the variety.
Subtle florals, melon, nectarine and white peach leaning into fig. A line of minerally acidity plays foil to the breadth of the mid-palate (72% malo, significant lees stirring). Somewhat buttery in the mouth, not overly so. Spicy, slightly cheesy and nutty. High-grade comfort Chardonnay. 92
