Critical Acclaim
Attractive aromas of white peach, dried mango, cream, smoked almond and flint. It’s medium-to full-bodied with crisp acidity. Deliciously ripe and creamy with vanilla and custard notes on the finish. Tangy at the end. Drink now.
The 2020 G Lot Chardonnay comes from a warmer year when they picked 20 days earlier than usual. It fermented in French barrels where it matured for eight months. It has a very balsamic profile, it's still very young and the ripeness is contained, similar to the 2019 I tasted next to it. It's creamy and floral, with good freshness and a compact mouthfeel. 30,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in October 2020.
