Tyler Bien Nacido W Block Chardonnay 2018

The 2018 Chardonnay Bien Nacido Vineyard W Block is laced with hints of apricot and tangerine oil, with a kick more tropical overtones that develop over time. Ample and creamy, with lovely depth, the 2018 is quite seductive, especially in the early going. A pretty, exotic flourish rounds things out nicely. Drinking window: 2021-2028. Score – 92.
