Ironstone Chardonnay 2022
Chardonnay
Price category: $$$
Description
The 2022 Ironstone Chardonnay exhibits refreshing aromas of fresh green apples, citrus and tropical fruits. As it dances across the palate, light citrus layered with fresh peaches fills the mouth as soft vanilla and oak notes linger. Good acidity gives it a crisp balance with a creamy medium-length finish.

Vineyard
The Kautz Family was the first to plant Chardonnay in the Lodi region and, today, they grow Chardonnay in several of Lodi’s sub-appellations, including Clements Hills, Mokelumne River and Sloughhouse. These different vineyards provide diverse soils and that, when combined, create a more complex wine than one location alone.
