2023 1 KM West Chardonnay

2023 1 KM West

Chardonnay

SONOMA COASTsonoma county


SPECIAL: $27.00
RETAIL: $46.00


TASTING NOTES

2023 coaxed us into using a bit more carefully chosen new French oak to assemble this cuvee showcasing the full yet vibrant side of Chardonnay. With plenty of texture to balance the citrus and verve, 1KM West can complement both lighter and richer delicacies at the table.

You’ll find just the right amount of fruit here: citrus galore combined with baked and green apple, light toast and lemon oil. While definitely not shy, fresh, snappy acidity and a whiff of saline/minerality on the finish keep the palate lively. We find its rich-yet-crisp, yin/yang nature reminds us of certain old word favorites.

While sure to be delicious soon after release, we suggest you try to sock some away for future enjoyment as we predict a lovely life ahead for this beautiful Chardonnay.
