Zena Crown VIneyard

2021 Desiderium Chardonnay

The inaugural vintage of Zena Crown Vineyard Chardonnay tastes just like the place - there is simply no better way to describe it. Doug fir pollen mixed with volcanic soil on the first warm day of spring. The wine is morning dew on spring buttercups, big white puffy clouds with a bright blue sky and a twist of cardamom. Broad and enveloping yet lithe like a fine high thread count bedsheet. Clear quartz crystalline shaped. Finishes with a hint of sumac bitters, effortless viscosity throughout, and snaps with lingering acidity.
