Nose
This wine unfolds with aromas and flavors of lemon peel, pineapple with a tropical note.
Palate
The palate mirrors the nose, bringing with it a crisp structure with a round and juicy mouthfeel and a creamy texture. A luscious expression of Napa Valley, it gets the best of all attributes- enough heat to ripen the fruit to express lovely fruit and citrus flavors; cool enough to maintain acidity.
Growing Conditions
The deep, well-draining gravelly loam and volcanic ash soils from some of the best sites around Coombsville give this wine weight and complexity. The vineyards have a cool breezes in from the bay at night that helps bring slow and even ripening tot he grapes.
Harvest
Chardonnay from the 2018 vintage in Napa Valley displayed a harmonious balance of fruit and acidity.
Appearance
Yellow gold color exudes a rich and luxurious visual appeal.
Food Pairing
An exceptional partner with hard and soft cheeses. Another classic pairing the buttery texture and mild flavors of roast chicken works well with the fruity and slightly oaky notes of this Napa Chardonnay.
