The tannin texture is excellent

An upright palate with lightly peppery dark berries and plums

it is concentrated yet fresh

The palate has a smooth array of bright blackberry and plum fruits with smoothly cut tannins that layer up nice and even

2023 | DuMOL 'Chloe' Chardonnay | Russian River Valley Pascal Janvier The tannin texture is excellentThe 2023 Chardonnay Chloe is a blend of fruit from Flora Marie and Bressay. It presents a distinctly tropical fruit profile to match its textured, opulent personality. There's plenty of brightness and acid to play off its more overt qualities. Readers who like richer wines (within this context) will find much to admire. Peach, apricot, chamomile and lightly honeyed notes extend the finish. 96 Pts Vinous
