2019 Domaine Eden Chardonnay Santa Cruz Mountains

Winemaker Notes:  In 2019, late rains hit the flowering season hard and brought their harvest down to the lowest yields since 1998. That said, here in the Santa Cruz Mountains, they are accustomed to the twists of nature. The wine quality is the only thing that genuinely matters and the vintage turned out wonderfully—subtle aromas of hazelnut, anise and vanilla. On the palate, crisp minerality with firm structured acidity is foremost. Flavors of citrus, earth and brown spice come to the fore. Given the winemaking style, which emphasizes Burgundian ageability, expect future development over the next ten years.
