A field selection of old vines from Wente vines at Bacigalupi Judgement of Paris Block. Aged for 16 months in Burgundian French Oak, seasoned barrels. 56 cases produced. | Nid TisseLooking at the two barrel samples, the 2021 Chardonnay Bacigalupi Vineyard comes from a site in the Russian River Valley and is more focused, precise, chiseled wine, revealing terrific aromatics of lemon, crushed citrus, white flowers, and sappy herbs. Coming all from the Wente Clone of Chardonnay, it brings medium to full-bodied richness on the palate, has integrated acidity, and a clean, classy finish. | 94-96 points, Jeb Dunnuck for jebdunnuck.com
