2024 Foundstone Unoaked Chardonnay, Berton Vineyard RiojaAlta and carved by the elementsLemon Drop & Sunshine This is Chardonnay in its purest, brightest form. The 2024 Foundstone opens with white rose, candied lemon and ripe peach, all lifted by a clean citrus freshness that feels instantly inviting. There is no oak here to distract, just fruit speaking clearly and confidently. On the palate, it is crisp and fruit driven, bursting with juicy peach, tropical hints and zesty lemon, balanced by a subtle creaminess from time spent on lees.
