The sylphlike 2018 Staglin Chardonnay is a delicately concentrated elixir of generously ripe yellow citrus and peak apricot nestled in light meringue drizzled with liquefied butterscotch spiced by faint hints of ginger, nutmeg and fractured vanilla bean pod. This vibrant wine glides across the palate in a near perfect balance, at once both rich and lean, that persists with an invitingly long finish of ephemeral delight.
