Knights Bridge East Block Chardonnay Knights Valley 2018
- Country USA
- Region Knights Bridge
- Grape Chardonnay
- ABV 14.5
- Case size 12 / 75cl
- Complex and detailed, with soaring aromas of white peach, citrus blossom, and brioche that follow through on the palate to lifted flavors of citrus and pear, complemented by a clear tenor of minerality that persists into the finish. Aromas of rich, honeyed, crystalized ginger are balanced by grassier notes of fresh hay, with a texture so complete that it creates an indelible memory. Enjoy effortless drinking now and a 20-year aging potential.
Made as a counterpoint to the rich, opulent West Block Chardonnay, the bright and aromatic East Block Chardonnay is an incredibly versatile wine. The nose begins with enticing scents of chamomile, and edelweiss and leads to delicate citrus aromas of kumquat and Persian lime, suggesting a wine where the entire range of Chardonnay will be on full display. The palate is full of drive and energy with flavors of lemon, pear, and freshly baked brioche, making for a wine that is compelling while still light on its feet. The 2017 vintage showcases all the complexity of this grape, supported by lively movement and a persistent minerality.
