Grands Joueurs Vignerons Bentrock Vineyard Mon Trajet Chardonnay Sta. Rita Hills CA 2022

Tasting Notes: Lemon peel, green apple and white peach lift from the glass, joined by chalk, sea breeze and a hint of marzipan. The palate is silky yet tense, layering stone fruit, citrus oil and wet stone through a long, mouthwatering finish.
