Trois Noix 2020 Chardonnay   

2020 Troix Noix Chardonnay Muir Hanna Vineyard Oak Knoll, Napa Valley

San Francisco Wine Panel Score 93+ Points

Racy yet with focused richness, this fine Chardonnay opens with aromas of golden mulberry, baked apple, pineapple core, lemon cream pie, nutmeg, baking spice, toasty vanilla and a suggestion of rattan. All of these notes fan out in the same proportion on the palate and through a sleek, lingering finish that develops elegance as the wine airs. This one should improve for another year. 537 cases produced.

Fresh and elegant, with a core of Honeycrisp apple, Bartlett pear and lemon curd flavors that show delicate details of lemon blossom, lemongrass and honeysuckle, with a crisp, minerally finish that keeps everything in focus and light on its feet. Drink now. 573 cases made.—M.W.
