2021 Morlet F.V. Chardonnay Ma Princesse 0,75 Liter

The Morlet Family Vineyards Chardonnay Ma Princesse 2021 is a luxurious white wine from California’s Russian River Valley, crafted by Luc Morlet from the Ritchie Vineyard’s old vines. This 2021 vintage displays a pale gold hue and a vibrant nose of lemon curd, green apple, and white peach, with hints of brioche, flint, and subtle oak. The palate is rich and concentrated, with vibrant acidity, a creamy texture, and a long, mineral-driven finish with a touch of toasty complexity. Fermented and aged in French oak barrels, this wine reflects the cool, fog-influenced terroir of Russian River Valley, delivering a Burgundian-style Chardonnay. Perfect with lobster, creamy risottos, or aged cheeses, it offers a sophisticated dining experience. Rated highly by critics, it is drinking beautifully but can evolve over the next 7-10 years, developing richer, nuttier notes. This Ma Princesse showcases Morlet’s meticulous approach, making it a collector’s gem for enthusiasts seeking a world-class California Chardonnay with elegance and depth.
