- Chardonnay Napa Valley - 2013

Chardonnay Napa Valley 2013

- 93 points -

Pahlmeyer's 2013 Chardonnay is deep, rich and textured, with considerable phenolic weight and intensity. Just bottled, the 2013 is tightly wound at this stage, but it is nevertheless impressive. Hints of lemon peel, butter and tropical fruit meld into the rich, textured finish. The vineyard sources are Waters and Antica, both on Atlas Peak.
