Tasting notes
Full bottle 1,346 g. Medium lemon in colour. Pineapple and baked citrus with a lick of spicy oak – very rich and attractive – pineapple-upside-down-cake-esque. Lengthy with juicy acidity. Delicious. (SCJ)

The 2021 Chardonnay Rochioli Vineyard is stunning! It features dynamic, detailed aromas of Meyer lemon, chalk and candle smoke offset by deeper tones of brioche and panna cotta. The medium-bodied palate pairs pure, generous flavors with racy acidity, and it has incredible length. 774 cases produced.
The 2021 Chardonnay Rochioli Vineyard is bright and focused, but also understated in feel. Sweet floral and citrus notes give the 2021 lovely aromatic presence to match the wine's understated, mid-weight personality. Bright saline tones add energy and tension throughout. Lemon peel, white pepper and crushed rocks linger.
