Auntsfield Single Vineyard Chardonnay 2023

It’s elegant and inviting on the nose with aromas of ripe peach, rockmelon, lemon peel, subtle vanilla, and toasted almond. The palate delivers excellent weight and silky flow, beautifully complemented by creamy texture and finely pitched acidity, finishing persistent and stylish. At its best: now to 2033. Score – 94.
