Description

Cuvée Torchiana 2020 comes from old‑vine Chardonnay in Beresini Vineyard, a cool Carneros site that Tor Kenward has championed for its intensity and character. The wine opens with aromas of Meyer lemon, yellow apple and white flowers layered with toasted hazelnut, crème brûlée and a hint of struck flint. The palate is concentrated and silky, combining ripe stone‑fruit and citrus depth with bright acidity and a saline, mineral edge, finishing long and precise. A serious, ageworthy Napa Chardonnay that shows Tor’s hallmark balance of richness and tension.
