The 2021 Catena Chardonnay is vibrant and harmonious, with great balance and freshness, varietal with elegant and shy aromas of white flowers and a long, dry finish with purity of flavors, unnoticeable oak and very good overall balance.

From at least 40-year-old vines in steep vineyards and bottled the same day as the CAI, the 2021 Riesling Detonation combines intense and ripe fruit with delicate and coolish slate aromas and fine flintiness. It is also really delicate on the palate, which is silky, crystalline and vibrantly fresh, vital and tensioned, with bright, light and shining fruit. Definitely a wine for terroir and oyster lovers rather than fans of Riesling as a grape variety. This is a freakily straight, pure and elegant Riesling that is as pure and refreshing as pure fish. 11% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in October 2022.
