Domaine Eden Chardonnay 2021

$2999

Domaine Eden is the more approachable sister label to Mount Eden Vineyards, high in the Santa Cruz Mountains above Silicon Valley. The Chardonnay is made in the classic Mount Eden style: hand-picked, whole-cluster pressed, barrel-fermented and aged on the lees in Burgundian barrels. The 2021 is a blend of about 60% Domaine Eden fruit and 40% Mount Eden estate, which makes it punch well above its weight. Cool-climate, mineral, and tightly drawn rather than buttery or tropical. If you love white Burgundy, this is one of the most Burgundian Chardonnays in California.

"Coming from a plot at 1,600 feet in elevation, the 2021 Chardonnay also includes about 25% declassified fruit from the Mount Eden estate. Spice-laden and taut, a super-enlivening core of vibrant acidity and white pepper bitterness here conveys seriousness. Nuances of tangerine peel, spearmint, crushed rocks and clove emerge on both nose and palate, coasting through the driven, precise finish. Well done." —Billy Norris

"The 2021 Chardonnay is initially tight on the nose, opening up to reveal flashy aromas of white peach, nectarine and crushed hazelnuts. The palate is medium-bodied and fresh, with a charming finish of citrus flavors flanked with toasty richness. It is a solid example of what one can expect from this property year in and year out, offering terrific value and classically proportioned balance." —Matthew Luczy

"Big and bold, with plenty of toast, spice and butterscotch notes up front, plus a core of peach cobbler, poached pear and caramel apple. The plush frame offers a vibrant thread of acidity, keeping the flavors fresh. Drink now."

"Crushed rock, lime pith and a hint of tonic water show on the nose of this bottling, the sister project to the iconic Mount Eden Vineyards. There's a zesty spray of citrus on the palate that enlivens the subtle peach flavors and earthy minerality." —Matt Kettmann
