Wayfarer 2020 Chardonnay Estate   

2020 Wayfarer Chardonnay Wayfarer Estate Vineyard Fort Ross-Seaview
San Francisco Wine Panel Score 98+ Points

This is always a complex bottling: zesty, varietally exotic and full of distinctive terroir contributions. The 2020 offers aromas of baked green apple, white peach, lemon sorbet, gooseberry, golden mulberry and toasted meringue contrasted by notable minerality. It is tongue-coating and supple yet vibrantly fresh on the palate, where lemon sorbet and pineapple core flavors take center stage and and the other fruit expressions are more youthfully shy. The finish is flavor-packed, racy and long, yet any impression of heaviness is tempered by an ever-present mineral undercurrent. Delicious already, it with only grow more so over the next few years. 1050 cases produced.

The 2020 Chardonnay Wayfarer Vineyard has pretty scents of baked apples, beeswax, roasted almonds and toast. The medium-bodied palate has a satiny texture and layered, savory flavors balanced by refreshing acidity, and it finishes long and flavorful. Drink Date 2022 - 2032. Erin Brooks 14th Jul 2022
