2022
La Source Chardonnay
La Source Chardonnay continues the great tradition of elegance and richness we’ve come to expect from this site. Sourced from the old-vine Dijon clones in the lower half of a narrow band of 14 vine rows, the wine speaks of our volcanic soils scattered with iron rich rocks and pebbles.
Tasting Note
Year after year, this wine shows equal parts verve and breadth, and 2022 is no different. Classic notes of struck match, lemon zest and Fuji apple coalesce with hints of baking spice and lees that widen in the mouth. A long growing season and fermentation lend a freshness and high-toned character to the wine, showing as tart, salty yellow fruits that sail through the palate. Mouthwatering, zippy and poised to reveal more with years in bottle, La Source speaks to the electric side of the world’s top white grape.
