The medium-bodied palate is satiny and expansive with highly concentrated, spicy fruit, seamless acidity and a long finish loaded with mouth-coating flavors. Drink this plush, luxurious and inviting Chardonnay over the next 5-7 years. 1,260 cases were made. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nLP96 After a couple of swirls, the 2020 Mon Plaisir comes barreling out with notes of peach cobbler and pear tart, followed by hints of persimmon butter, honey-roasted almonds, and wet pebbles. The full-bodied palate is both refreshing and creamy, delivering impactful pear and baking spices layers, finishing long and nutty. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nJD96 The 2020 Chardonnay Mon Plaisir has aromas of crushed rock, savory chive, and ripe pear. It offers a beautifully rich texture with a stony mineral feel and layers of complexity that should continue unfold over the next 10 or more years. I look forward to seeing it mature.

In 2020, Robert Fiore took the helm as winemaker, but the previous winemaker, Luc Morlet, remains as a consultant. Robert studied at the Colorado School of Mines, which led him to a career in environmental geophysics, before finding his path into the world of wine. He went on to UC Davis to study Viticulture and Enology. Most recently, Robert was a member of the winemaking team at Continuum in Napa. Vineyard manager Javier Avina has championed the land since 1991. Each of the sites are steep hillsides that modulate with varied exposition and soils in the Knights Valley. Sir Peter’s son Paul and his wife Emily oversee the management of the winery today.
