The Hilt Chardonnay 2023

Born in La Consulta

with crunchy red fruit framed by subtle earth and white pepper

but the winery is now in the hands of his two sons

edged by rose petal and a faint herbal lift

red fruit notched with cool steel—inviting both immediate pleasure and patient company at the table

wind and wood

no matter which wine they are destined for

while Nero d’Avola layers in black raspberry

The palate is light-footed but tactile

but in the deeper

Not chandelier-French

This reinforced the strong feeling that he was brought up with from all those days of his father’s Vintners Blend in the past – that wine should be as economically accessible to as many people as possible
