The 2022 Chardonnay Hapgood is gorgeous. Coming from a site on the northern side of the appellation, it has a clean, classy nose of white flowers, green almond, stone fruits, and crushed stone, with some classic Sta. Rita Hills salinity and iodine-like nuances. Balanced, medium to full-bodied, and elegant, with a lively spine of acidity and a fabulous finish, it's up with my favorites from this estate in 2022.
