Paul Lato Kokoro Chardonnay 2023

"A selection from the single vineyards (hence the California AVA) and aged 18 months in 50% new French oak, the 2023 Chardonnay Kokoro reveals ripe stone fruits, spice, toast, and beautiful honeyed minerality. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it has a fresh, focused, polished mouthfeel, integrated acidity, and a great finish with tons of minerality and salinity. You can put this up with any Chardonnay in the vintage. Drink 2025-2033." 97 points rated by Jeb Dunnuck
