2021 Rhys Chardonnay Horseshoe Vineyard, USA, California, Santa Cruz, Wine Review
This continues to be my favorite Chardonnay! It drinks great young and ages nicely. With just a kiss of vanilla showing, there is some oak but not enough to be an issue even for many of the most oak adverse drinkers. Light green/gold in color, clear and bright. The nose is great with lemon creme, a touch of vanilla, spice and slight char. Full bodied. Very light tannins. Great balance. On the palate, this is delicious. Great texture. Flavors of lemons, slight cooked apples, vanilla and spice. A bit of char on the long finish. This drinks great on its own and will work well with
