The 2019 Hawk Hill Chardonnay has the appearance of a very young wine, with a clear, slightly chartreuse color. On the nose, it has aromas of passion fruit, grapefruit, nutmeg, dusty earth and Gravenstein apples. As usual for Hawk Hill, the bright acidity stands out on the palate and welcomes ?avors of peaches, tart apples, lemon chi?on and lightly toasted almonds. With its long, elegant ?nish of bright fruit, we anticipate that this excellent, cool-climate Chardonnay will be at its best between 2021 and 2026.
