Chardonnay M3 2024
- 93 points -
The 2024 Chardonnay M3 is charming and unforced, with waves of grapefruit, blossom and honeydew melon neatly wrapped in spicy French oak. Beautifully composed, a touch of smoky reduction is counterbalanced by bright, energetic flavors delivered over a fine, chalky-textured palate. This will be superb after a little time in the cellar.
