This Chardonnay comes from older vine's in the Rochioli Vineyard which the family has lived on and farmed the vineyards for almost 80 years. The 2015 Chardonnay from David Ramey is absolutely gorgeous, as it begins with fresh aromas of ripe Meyer lemon, flint, crushed stones and orchard fruits all taking shape in the glass. On the palate this possesses a beautiful rich, oily texture and remarkable balance leading up to the delicious finish. Although this is impressive today, I expect it will become even more compelling if allowed some additional time to develop in bottle.
