2021 Groth Chardonnay 'Hillview Vineyard' Oak Knoll District

Winemaker Notes: Beautifully expressive, the 2021 vintage displays classic Chardonnay aromas of lemon and green apple, along with a mineral and floral edge. Scents of orange blossom and poached pear are followed by fragrant notes of linalool, hints of clove and even papaya. Fresh and bright acidity marks the palate, along with notes of citrus and wet stone leading to a full, lingering finish.

This wine’s refreshing acidity and well-rounded flavor profile make it a great match for a range of dishes, including linguine with clam sauce, seared Dungeness crab cakes, or crispy fried tofu and rice noodles.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


James Suckling - "Aromas of lemon curd and sliced pineapple with dried herbs, white flowers and crushed almond undertones. Medium- to full-bodied, crisp and slightly phenolic in the middle with notes of sliced apples and citrus rind, with a weighty, creamy finish."
