Tasting notes
The 2018 Chardonnay Westside Farms Vineyard, which comes from a vineyard in the Russian River, reveals a medium gold hue as well as medium to full-bodied aromas and flavors of candied lemons, honeysuckle, flower oil, and green almonds. Beautiful on the palate, this balanced, impeccably made Chardonnay can be drunk today or cellared for a decade.

The 2018 Chardonnay Westside Farms Vineyard is a gorgeous wine that drinks well now but has the potential to age very well in the cellar. It has a pure perfume of white flowers, almonds, peaches and quince, with touches of candied citrus. Its expansive, satiny palate is expertly balanced with ripe fruits, spices and mineral undertones. It finishes with incredible length. 212 cases were made.
The 2018 Chardonnay Westside Farms Vineyard is one of the more accessible wines in this range. Soft and silky in feel, the Westside Farms will drink well right out of the gate. Juicy apricot and peach fruit open first, followed by dried flowers, mint and a touch of spice. This suave, caressing Chardonnay is pure seduction.
