Nose

A wine chock full of lemon, flint and clove notes with a hint of exotic passion fruit.

Palate

It is mouthfilling and rich, while remaining beautifully balanced and bright.

Growing Conditions

Our first 100% Chardonnay comes from 45-year-old vines planted to the venerable Old Wente clone in the heart of the Russian River Valley. The cool growing season allowed for particularly long hang-time, producing a wine with great clarity and detail.

Bottling

Unfined and unfiltered.

Winemaking

We whole-cluster pressed and barrel-fermented the wine in 50% new French oak barrels, where it also underwent full malo-lactic fermentation.
