Wine Review: 2021 Tyler Chardonnay

Lompoc, CA

I am really ecstatic I found this one, as it is such great quality for the price. It is a beautiful bright lemon color, with notes of green apple, lemon, vanilla, florals, and cream from maloactic fermentation. It is nicely balanced, medium-bodied, and has a beautiful minerality and long finish. This is one to stock up on!

95 Points - The 2021 Chardonnay over-delivers for its appellation-wide status. It has pretty scents of quince, poached pear, spring honey, chalk and roasted almonds. The medium-bodied palate is satiny, savory and expansive with dynamic flavor layers and a very long finish. Drink Date 2022 - 2030.

93 Points - A very bright and clear wine with lightly cooked fruit and pastry character. Medium-bodied with creamy texture and a crispness at the end. Lemon and lime in the finish. Drink now.
