2022 DeMayo Chardonnay

On the nose, alluring aromas of Bartlett pear, buttercream and rosemary-blossom honey exude from the glass. The 2022 both has a finely-honed acidity and a pillowy body, with its oak influence clearest upon the finish. The acidity conveys a hint of Granny Smith apple fresh pineapple and lemon pith on the palate, which will become even more pie-like with aging. Well balanced notes of honeybutter continue on through the creamy finish.

DeMayo Vineyard is an acclaimed, east-western facing and gentling sloping vineyard site that has won recognition for the opulent, tropical chardonnay it has year in, year out since 2008.
