Daou Chardonnay Paso Robles 23

DAOU Vineyards sits high on the limestone-rich Adelaida District of Paso Robles, where founders Georges and Daniel Daou farm calcareous soils that lend their wines tension and minerality. This Paso Robles Chardonnay balances California sunshine with that mountain freshness, typically barrel fermented and aged to build a creamy texture alongside bright orchard and citrus fruit. The 2023 vintage offers ripe apple and pear framed by subtle toasty oak and a refreshing finish, an approachable, polished expression from one of the Central Coast's standout estates.
