Recognition

The 2022 Chardonnay Tiers Vineyard 1.5m is exactly what I expected it to be: excellent. A piercing intensity of flavor is matched by the piercing (and juicy) acidity. It fills the mouth side to side with sapid, staining fruit and lingers long through the finish. A superstar wine. It’s got a massive reputation for a reason. 13.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.

*I can still taste it after taking a phone call and coming back to this note.
