The 2024 KARIA Chardonnay has aromas of white peach, zesty lemon-lime, luxurious crème brûlée, and refreshing honeydew melon, complemented by delicate floral notes and a whisper of clove and vanilla. The palate is treated to a velvety mouthfeel and medium body that exudes balance and sophistication.

The 2024 Chardonnay Karia is heady and racy from start to finish. Lemon confit, tangerine oil, marzipan and white flowers are beautifully laced together. The Karia offers a striking mix of vintage 2024 richness tempered by partially blocked malolactic fermentation.
