PRODUCT OVERVIEW/REVIEW:
Inspired by the winemakers’ craft, the Lion's Head Panthera Collection is an expression of next-generation wines. Tim and Sabrina Persson created this collection to ignite conversation around the artistry of these wines, and the dynamic, captivating process of winemaking. The collection is fueled by their passion and desire for their wines to inspire connection. *
The 2021 Hess Estates Panthera Chardonnay is an homage to balance - fruit with terroir and oak-driven richness with acidity - and is inspired by the subtle strength brought forth by the cool climate of the Russian River valley. This monovarietal, aged for 18 months in a combination of new and seasoned French oak barrels, presents beautiful layers of crisp, bright Asian pear and golden apple that lead to luscious notes of lemon curd developed from malolactic fermentation. The deft baseline of toasted oak introduces notes of buttered French toast and hints of crème brûlée, which are complemented by a signature backbone of acidity nurtured on the Sonoma Coast.*

93 points, Wine Enthusiast Magazine:
"This layered and subtle wine is not obvious in aroma, suggesting poached pears and cream, then opening up more on the palate where vibrant green apples and white peaches bring a freshness and drive that carries over to a lingering finish. Tempting now, and best through 2030."
