The 2014 Chardonnay Lauren is a huge, incredibly complex and blockbuster styled Chardonnay that always seems to me to be a mix of a great Chablis and a Chevalier-Montrachet. And while it’s brought up in 100% new oak, it’s almost impossible to detect. This incredible wine offers loads of lemon oil, buttered citrus, honeysuckle and white flowers in a full-bodied, yet elegant, perfectly balanced package. It only gets better with air, give it a decant if drinking anytime soon. While I can’t keep my hands off of these and go through my allocation far too quickly, I’ve no doubt these will evolve gracefully.
