Our Chardonnay grapes were carefully selected and hand-picked before dawn from our vineyard estate located in the heart of the Los Carneros appellation. Extra care was taken in the handling of the grapes to preserve the optimum flavor & varietal character by whole-cluster pressing in the cool early morning hours, then barrel fermenting & aging the wine in premium French Burgundian oak barrels at our new state-of-the-art winery facility.
