The Hilt Chardonnay 2021 is a Chardonnay from the Sta Rita Hills in California. This producer has gained an international reputation for focusing on the influence of the cool Pacific breeze on their coastal vineyards. The wine shows the tension of the 2021 vintage, with aromas of white peach, grapefruit and a distinct flintiness that mirrors the cool, maritime climate. The palate is layered and rich, yet defined by a bracing acidity that cuts through the concentration, proving that the region can produce wines with the same structural rigour as some of the best sites in Europe.

A lovely combination of waxy and floral on the nose, the 2021 Chardonnay Estate splits the difference between pure, chiseled focus and elegant polish. The palate is rich and creamy yet braced with balancing acidity that carries through the tangy, linear finish. - Matthew Luczy

Aged 35% in new French oak, 60% in neutral French oak, and 5% in stainless-steel tanks for 11 months.

Fresh lime juice and sea-spray aromas. It is much flintier and broader on the palate than expected, considering the delicate nose. It is creamy and rich, still vibrant and fresh. Long, dry finish with a touch of white flowers.
