Whitehall Lane 2020 Chardonnay Sonoma
2020 Whitehall Lane Chardonnay Sonoma Valley
San Francisco Wine Panel Score 92 Points
Rich and slightly creamy, this pretty Chardonnay delivers aromas of baked apple, white peach, lemon meringue and pineapple core supported by notes of nutmeg, baking spice and hazelnut. It is richer in oaky spice and fuller in body than expected on the palate, where cutting zest helps to streamline the mouth-feel as flavors of baked apple, white peach, toasted meringue, vanilla wafer, ginger and graham cracker fan out. The finish offers length and good density and the wine should improve for the next year or more.
