A bright yellow/silver color, the 2021 Chardonnay Mes Filles Vineyard is fresh and herbaceous with lifted aromas of crushed stones, sea spray, chive, lime blossom, and fresh pear. Medium-bodied, it has a graceful and weightless feel, with its saline and delicate touch lasting on the palate. It's going to show its best over the next 8-10 years.

The 2021 Chardonnay Mes Filles Vineyard is complex and effusive. It shows all the linear intensity Ross Cobb seeks in his wine, but there is more aromatic breadth, a bit more mid-palate depth and, in my view, better balance. He achieves all of that here while still preserving notable energy and tension.

Aromas of fresh pear, almond skin, and white flowers drive the nose of this clean and linear Chardonnay. The palate gives waves of nectarine, Meyer lemon and pineapple sage flavors before a long and winding finish with echoes of orange blossom and lemon peel.
