2022 Sonoma County Chardonnay

“Crafted with four unique lots from grower partners in the southern end of Napa Valley. Fermenting in French Oak barrels and judicious use of malolactic fermentation leads to a lush, creamy texture with mid-palate weight while keeping the wine refreshingly bright, balanced and fruit-forward. Aromas of baked pear, crème brûlée, and candied orange are complemented by pie crust and baking spice.”

WINEMAKING

• Barrel fermenting in new French Oak produces well-integrated toasty aromas and mid-palate roundness, without overpowering the fruit flavors.
• Malolactic fermentation with meticulous attention to the diacetyl levels, results in a rich, creamy finish, while allowing acidity to shine through.
