Mount Eden's 2018 Chardonnay offers a fabulous interplay of richness and energy. A wine of linear intensity, the 2018 could use a few more years in bottle to be at its best, but it is super-impressive, even now, in what is very clearly the early going. Lemon confit, mint, orange peel, spice and light butter notes all build into the articulate, polished finish. This is such a classy wine. Give it a few years to come together.

2018 vintage. Mount Eden Vineyards wine dinner @Mister A’s Restaurant-San Diego. Balanced and low-key. No particular part of the journey screams out for attention; it all plays well together. Some orange creamsicle, Meyer lemon, lychee and vanilla bean all lurking about. So phenomenal. 4.20.23.
