The 2021 Racines Bentrock Chardonnay opens with a pale gold hue and a delicate, expressive nose. Aromas of ripe yellow apple, pear, and stone fruit mingle with subtle hints of citrus zest, toasted almond, and a whisper of white flowers. There is a gentle minerality that keeps the aromatics fresh and lifted.
On the palate, this Chardonnay is beautifully textured and layered. Flavors of juicy apple, ripe pear, and lemon curd are complemented by a touch of vanilla and baking spice from careful oak aging. The wine is bright and precise, with lively acidity that balances the richness and carries through to a long, clean finish. This is a Chardonnay that showcases elegance and energy, perfect for both special meals or simply enjoying on its own.
