Senses Charles Heintz Vineyard Chardonnay 2021 champagne-taittinger with hints of charcoalAn exquisite Chardonnay that showcases the harmony between fruit and minerality. Notions of almond croissant, persimmons, and candied ginger lead to a fragrant core of mandarin peel, lime blossoms, and juicy nectarines, plus a waft of butterscotch. The medium to full bodied palate is an explosion of bright citrus and stone fruit fireworks, offset by fantastic tension and a satiny texture, finishing long and minerally.
