The 2021 Hopes Cuvee Chardonnay is pure perfection right from its entry. An enticing bouquet of lemon meringue, delicate florals, orange blossom, white peach and honey greet you in the glass. On the palette, the wine has a rich body, yet with riveting focus and precision that balances the opulence perfectly. Long, salivating finish will have you pondering about the wine for years to come. Enjoy now or keep for a few years, this wine will continue to evolve beautifully in bottle.
