Joel Gott Barrel Aged Chardonnay 2021

This new wine from Joel Gott is crafted to reflect an old-school Napa Chardonnay and features a traditional oaky style. It was fermented and aged in French oak. The 2021 season was consistent without any heat spikes, producing small, concentrated fruit clusters that translated to complex, intense apple and mineral tones. Look for a long, balanced wine, with toasted oak and spice on the close.
