Tasting notes
So layered, minerally and savory in style, this is super-concentrated yet sleek and balanced. Laced with stony, almost chalky elements among green apple, kiwi, pine and thyme accents. Light to medium in body, low in alcohol but so vivid in flavors. Drink now or hold.

Bright silver/yellow-hued, the 2022 Chardonnay The Eyrie takes a more decadent tone on the nose, with elegant baking spice, lemon custard, frangipane, white flowers, and poached pear or apples. Electricity pulses underneath its more decadent, luxurious, and mouthwatering feel, and it’s long on the palate. This is a fantastic Chardonnay. Drink 2025-2037.
The 2022 Chardonnay Estate has inviting aromas of dried apples, mixed nuts, beeswax and spicy undertones. The medium-bodied palate offers surprisingly concentrated, savory flavors. Its luxurious, mouth-coating texture is balanced by mouthwatering acidity, and it has a long, flavorful finish.
The 2022 Chardonnay The Eyrie blossoms in the glass, where vividly ripe apricots mingle with mint, enriched by crushed raw almond and confectionery spice. Silken weight meets lively energy as saline-infused pit fruits cascade across the palate, while a pretty inner floral note arches above. Nuances of custard linger, yet the 2022 remains lively and spry. Pure class.
