Growing Conditions
Fruit for our 2015 Three Sister’s Chardonnay is sourced from the organic Marimar Estate’s Don Miguel Vineyard which is located in the southwest corner of the Russian River Valley. The fruit is grown in a cool microclimate with a combination of See and Rued Clones.
The wine is aged in a combination of stainless steel and used French oak barrels. The old world winemaking technique of batonnage, the French term for stirring the lees, provides a balanced wine with a beautifully silky mid palate.
Aging
14 Months in 60% Stainless Steel and 40% Used French Oak
