*Vintage may vary by location*
Every year we grow increasingly more confident that the approach that we take with our Chardonnay not only produces a wine that is lovely upon release, but continues to develop beautifully in the bottle over time. (Just open a 2010, 2011 and 2012 and you’ll see what I mean). Limited barrel fermentation coupled with extended sur lie aging in concrete vats keeps the wine bright and fresh on the finish. This year’s innovation of brief time on the skins before pressing has paid dividends in expressing greater palate depth.Pure mineral flavors underscore the light yet complex, biscuity aromas and hints of white peach. Serve this wine to your skeptical friends, they will be charmed and surprised. Our thoughts are to serve this very layered yet delicate wine with the most simple of shellfish preparations. Just in time for Dungeness crab season!
