Tasting note:
Our 2019 Westerhold Chardonnay has a lovely mix of fruit aromas that is like holding a basket of apples, peaches and melons. It's richly textured, but certainly not heavy on the palate. If given further air, a wonderful roasted hazelnut note appears along with a touch of quince. Perhaps our finest Chardonnay to date.
