2020 Haynes Vineyard, Corazon, Chardonnay, Coombsville, Napa Valley, California, USA

Description

Only 100 cases produced, and with vines dating back to 1968, these are the oldest Chardonnay vines in Napa Valley. Corazon is the crown jewel of the Haynes vineyard, inspired by the Burgundian styles of the late eighties and early nineties. This wine shows immense concentration and length, with a tightly wound structure that promises great evolution over time. On the nose, it reveals elegant aromas of white peach, lemon zest, limeflower, and honeydew melon, all underpinned by a vibrant, racy acidity that ensures freshness and balance. At 12.95% abv, it is remarkably poised and will reward patience.

They are unquestionably the finest dry white wines in the world. Chardonnay plays a crucial role in the Champagne blend, providing structure and finesse, and is the sole grape in Blanc de Blancs.
