Markham Chardonnay 2022

94
Markham
Varietal: Chardonnay
Vintage: 2022
Country of Origin: USA
Appellation: Napa Valley
Retail Price: $27.99

Tasting Notes: 45 years ago, the Markham family resurrected the original winery that dated back to 1874, and started producing world-class wines. This is classic Napa Chardonnay, with most of the sourcing from the Little Canyon vineyard in the cool Oak Knoll AVA. 100% barrel fermented, but only 25% malolactic fermented. Aged almost nine months in French oak. Classic notes of citrus and apple with rich vanilla overtones. Light touches of minerality from the valley floor add a level of complexity. An excellent value for the money.

Tasting Notes: The second release with the new elegant label and screw top, and it does not disappoint. Kristen Barnhisel continues her winning streak, and lets the vineyards speak. She utilized eight clones for this vintage, including the famed Wente clone. 62% malolactic fermented, with lees stirred weekly, then aged in a blend of French, Hungarian and American oak for up to nine months. Rich, viscous mouthfeel with complex notes of kiwi, nectarine and apple. Subtle notes of oak lead to a long lingering finish. Perfect for grilled chicken with a rich sauce.
