The Story
Straw colored with gold highlights and slow-forming, light tears. Aromatic lemon rind, tart citrus, and delicate jasmine blossom, with bitter almond and wet- stone minerality. Medium-bodied and dry on entry, with ripe pineapple, Bartlett pear, and lemon curd. The midpalate follows with honeydew melon, complemented by herbal notes of tarragon and fennel. The finish is elegant and fresh, with flavors of Granny Smith apple and bright, lingering acidity.
The 2023 Justin Central Coast Chardonnay pairs beautifully with a simple Caesar salad topped with shrimp. To highlight the wine’s notes of citrus and lean minerality, pair it with lemon chicken in a classic beurre blanc sauce.
