Ponzi Laurelwood Chardonnay 2021 (91 JD)
“A medium yellow hue, the 2021 Chardonnay Laurelwood District is juicy with notes of melon, wet stone, candied citrus, and a rounded touch of oak spice. Medium-bodied, with fresh energy balanced with ripe fruit and a citrus-driven finish with a light saline touch. It has a nice snap of fresh acidity and is attractive for drinking now or over the next few years.” – J.S 3/23
