Jules Taylor Chardonnay 2024

A lovely pure fruited bouquet with a core [of] fresh white peach and apple, there’s a layer of grapefruit peel then vanilla and nut suggestions stemming from the use of French oak. A fine mineral complexity adds depth and style. Lovely weight and creaminess as the wine touches the palate, satin smooth with contrasting acidity and super fine tannin textures. Well made, youthful, balanced and ready to drink from day of purchase through 2029+. Excellent. Score – 94. (Cameron Douglas, MS, camdouglasms.com, May 31, 2025)
