2023 Metzker Russian River Valley Jill’s Cuvée Chardonnay
The 2023 Russian River Valley Jill’s Cuvée Chardonnay opens with aromas of ripe pear, white peach, and citrus zest, complemented by delicate notes of honeycomb and toasted almond. On the palate, it’s silky and rich, yet vibrant, with flavors of golden apple,
Meyer lemon, and a hint of vanilla. Crisp acidity adds energy, leading to a
smooth, lingering finish with a touch of minerality. This is a beautifully
balanced and expressive Chardonnay.
