Wayfarer WF2 Chardonnay 2021

Tasting Notes Freshly squeezed oranges and lemon zest emerge from the glass along with nectarine, toasted almond and coconut. Intense with lots of volume, the wine is balanced by a zesty backbone. The palate is opulent yet fresh with creamy notes of lemon meringue pie and a hint of sea salt.  White peach emerges as the wine lingers on the palate.  There is a beautiful symmetry and balance to this Chardonnay.   About Wayfarer WF2 WF2 wines possess a true sense of place, outstanding quality and exceptional value.  100% grown and made by us in tiny quantities, they are a barrel-by-barrel deselection.
