2019 Thomas Fogarty "Estate" Santa Cruz Mountains Chardonnay
95
Decanter
A deeply reverberating wine with forward, piercing yellow-peach and grapefruit flavours cut by spine-tingling lemon-lime acidity. Barrel-fermented with native yeasts and spontaneous malolactic fermentation, it's a richly structured wine, powerful in concentration and anchored in earth but maintains a salty, tangy freshness that's persistent through a long finish.

Notes
From Thomas Fogarty's mountain estate on the Skyline ridge, this Chardonnay represents the winery's core estate bottling rather than a single-vineyard selection. The vineyards sit high above Silicon Valley in the Santa Cruz Mountains AVA, where cool Pacific influence and thin mountain soils have made the estate a longtime benchmark for California Chardonnay.
