Peter Michael "Belle Côte" Chardonnay 2023

The 2023 Chardonnay Belle Côte open with gorgeous floral aromatics. Jasmine, white pear, mint, slate and white pepper give the 2023 its distinctive upper register. This nervy, brilliant Chardonnay just needs time in bottle to soften a touch. These Chardonnay vines, planted in 1990, are the oldest at Peter Michael. I loved it. (AG)
