Tasting notes
Our 2020 Carneros Chardonnay is bright with citrus aromas of lemon and tangerine, stone fruits and toasted oak. The medium-weight palate is marked by refined minerality and oak supporting a ripe palate of pear, lemon cream and fresh apple flavors that linger through a refreshing finish.
Vinification
Due to the geological diversity of vineyards within the Carneros appellation, grapes were hand harvested based upon optimum ripeness and flavor maturity from sites including Herman, Thornton Ranch and Southern Sonoma. The grapes were whole cluster pressed, 100% barrel fermented and completed secondary fermentation.
Ageing
The wine was aged in 30% new French oak for 14 months.
Food pairing
Perfect with brie cheese, creamy mushroom polenta, chicken with dijon mustard sauce, lobster or crab with lemon butter.
