Vinden ‘The Headcase’ Somerset Vineyard Chardonnay

The palate is fine, textural, and citrus‑driven, opening with lemon curd, grapefruit pith, and white‑peach flesh. The acidity is bright and clean, giving the wine a lifted, energetic line. Subtle oak spice and creamy lees weight sit quietly in the background, adding shape without heaviness. The mid‑palate feels silky yet taut, balancing gentle stone‑fruit richness with a mineral, lightly chalky edge. The finish is long, dry, and precise, tapering with notes of citrus oil, almond meal, and wet stone.
