La Jota W.S. Keyes Chardonnay 2021

The 2021 W.S. Keyes Chardonnay opens with a delicious nose of apple, pear and musky jasmine blossom. Orchard fruits carry through to the palate, which intensifies with lemon zest then deepens into hazelnut and a little gunpowder. Unmistakable Howell Mountain minerality is infused throughout. The complex balance of fruit, floral and savory creates a wonderfully fresh and evocative bottle.
