Flavor Profile

Knights Valley delivers profound Chardonnay with electric minerality cutting through opulent fruit.
Lemon curd richness opens immediately. Brioche depth from precise oak work. Honeysuckle perfume lifts without cloying. White peach flesh adds mid-palate weight. Mineral spine runs through everything - granite, wet stones. Finish extends forever. Acidity perfectly calibrated. This vintage hits peak drinking now but holds another decade easily. Peter Michael's site selection pays dividends here.
๐ท You want Burgundy-level complexity without crossing the Atlantic.
Pairs with: Butter-poached lobster, Roasted chicken with herbs, Aged Gruyรจre, Seared scallops with cauliflower purรฉe
