Pale pink to the eye

sharply delineated bouquet evokes ripe raspberry

It's already drinking nicely

It is a Chardonnay with good greasiness and mineral acidity

Croix Estate 'Narrow Gauge' Chardonnay, Russian River Valley, USA 2021 Madeira - Rainwater Pale pink to the eyeA fuller, yet bright and refreshing style of Chardonnay, this wine has a golden straw presence in the glass with a bouquet of raw honey, marmalade, fresh citrus zest, toasted pine nuts, rocky flints, all spice, toasted oak and lusciousness on the nose that is ever so inviting. Island ripe pineapple, apple, stone fruit, and crisp pear leave the mouthwatering in a cascade of pleasure.
