Barnett Vineyards 2024 Sangiacomo Vineyard Chardonnay, Carneros

The 2024 Sangiacomo Chardonnay has a brilliant light gold core. Aromatics of pear and apricot are first apparent followed by tropical fruits. Mainly passion fruit and guava. There are underpinning jasmine and white pepper. Nicely viscous as always flavors of stone fruit with hints of rosewater and soapstone prevail on the palate. The acidity is fresh due to the limited malo-lactic this year. A wonderful expressive wine in its youth, this wine will age nicely over the next 5-6 years (2030-2031).
