Mendocino
2020 Alder Springs Vineyard Mendocino Chardonnay
This 2020 offering is layered and complex with green apple, pear, and dried flowers intertwined with Meyer lemon citrus and ginger notes. Rich, and very complex while still maintaining a delicate and energetic flow on the palate, there is poise and freshness to the long finish with clove and toffee almond flavors. This is a very fine Alder Springs Chardonnay that will reward the patient collector.
