Elanto Chardonnay 2024

This Chardonnay from Elanto Vineyard is a debut that feels bold yet impeccably polished. You’re greeted with scents of citrus blossom, ginger flower and struck flint, which segue into a richer core of white peach, nectarine and grapefruit pith. The oak contribution is elegant—warm cedar and grilled nut-tones—while the creamy lees texture adds depth without overwhelming. There’s wonderful tension between richness and razor-sharp acidity, and a whisper of flint/mineral flintiness that lingers long on the finish. It’s a wine with body, elegance, and serious style—even from such young vines.
