Cruse Rorick Vineyard Chardonnay 2023

A stoney Chardonnay from vines planted in 1974 over schist over limestone bedrock in the Sierra foothills. With aromas of orange blossoms, apricot, and sweet cream lead to a palate of fresh citrus, ripe pear, and white flowers with a pleasing mineral finish. Not a touch of new oak to be found here.
