Bergstrom, Sigrid Chardonnay Vintage:2021 and as it so often

and as it so often happens

This displayed both fairly strong toast and heavy reduction last year from barrel and while the toast is almost completely gone

You can see the texture of this is thicker than some

Bergstrom, Sigrid Chardonnay Vintage:2021 and as it so oftenThe 2021 Chardonnay Sigrid is bright and crystalline, offering scents of Meyer lemon, almonds, meringue and flint. The palate is surprisingly powerful! It explodes with concentrated apple and almond layers, while its firm, linear acidity provides tension. It has a very long, mouthwatering finish and will benefit from 2 3+ years in bottle.
