2022 La Cruz Chardonnay
Pear & Vanilla Bean
While it was a hot year, our Petaluma Gap Chardonnays remained elegant and bold. Pear and orange blossom on the nose, ripe stone fruits on the palate, and the oak is much more integrated into the wine than previous vintages. 100% malolactic fermentation.
James Suckling, 93 Points:
"Bright lemon flavors and good acidity back up the plush butter and vanilla bean notes in this wine that’s full-bodied and mouth-filling yet light on the palate. Crisp apples and Bosc pears turn soft and rich as you sip, then linger nicely in the finish. Drink or hold."
