The 2019 Chardonnay Pisoni Vineyard East of Eden is one of the more accessible wines in this range. Lemon confit, white flowers, tangerine oil and tropical accents all run through this expressive Santa Lucia Highlands Chardonnay. The Pisoni is often the most showy of the Lato Chardonnays, as it is once again this year.

As usual, the 2019 Chardonnay East of Eden Pisoni Vineyard is more reserved and tight yet builds slowly with time in the glass. Crushed citrus, honeysuckle, flower oil, and honeyed minerality all emerge with air, and this beauty is medium to full-bodied, perfectly balanced, and has a liquid rock-like sense of minerality on the palate. Just beautiful on all accounts, it has integrated acidity, flawless balance, and a great finish. It's an incredible Chardonnay from the genius of Paul Lato that will keep for at least 7-8 years, if not a decade.
