Rita Hills, California, planted in 2020. Grown between 540 and 850 feet elevation on fractured limestone and calcareous clay-loam soils, it shows restrained orchard and citrus fruit with stony mineral notes and a distinct saline character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eOn the palate, it is concentrated and finely structured, with bright acidity, mineral tension and a textured, dry finish. Native-yeast fermentation takes place in 500L puncheons and 228L French oak barriques, with around 25% new oak, followed by 11 months in barrel and seven months in stainless steel on lees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBen’s Recommendation:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for those who enjoy cool-climate Chardonnay with restrained fruit, limestone-derived mineral character and fresh acidity.
