Winemaking
2018 was a near-perfect vintage in the Napa Valley. Fruit set was plentiful and even and moderate temperatures allowed for long slow ripening. The Young Inglewood 2018 Chardonnay is a beautiful tribute to the vintage. Complex and alluring, the wine introduces itself with aromas of lemon, lime, mandarin orange and butterscotch. A study in contrasts, the wine is round and plush yet ethereally light, with a refreshing minerality and lively acidity. These qualities are elegantly supported by a touch of oak which lends intrigue to the long finish. Cheers, Jacky Young
