The 2018 Chardonnay Stone Flat Vineyard comes from a site just 30 feet from the Durell Vineyard, yet this cuvée emerges all from the 420a rootstock, which has less potassium uptake and generally yields a lower pH, slightly more acidic wine. This 2018 offers a more perfumed, pretty bouquet of lemon zest, honeysuckle, white flowers, and a terrific sense of minerality. Playing in the more medium-bodied end of the spectrum, it has a great mid-palate, concentrated fruit, bright acidity, and a classy, lengthy finish. It's a stunner that's going to evolve for 10-15 years.

The 2018 Chardonnay Stone Flat Vineyard is delicate on the nose, slowly revealing singular scents of lemon blossoms, white peaches, oyster shell and fresh herbs with a honey-nut undercurrent. The palate is equally delineated and pure but concentrated, offering flinty, citrus-laced fruits with an energetic acidic spine and long, minerally finish.
