Tasting Notes

Aroma

Elegant with fresh pear and floral notes.

Maturation

94 % aged for 9 months in French oak, 44% new and 6% stainless steel fermented.

Palate

Blending has created a palate that is a graceful balance of rich and creamy textures with vibrant acidity. Flavours of baked Gala apple, Bosc pear, hazelnut, vanilla and oak spices round out its appeal.

Vintage Notes

Winemakers absolutely adored the 2023 vintage by all standards. We had enough winter rains to ease us out of drought conditions setting us up for springtime growth. Vine vigor was healthy with good canopy management. Summertime temperatures were very mild, giving us significant hangtime into the fall with harvest starting a few weeks later than recent years. Harvest progressed at an even pace starting on September 1 and concluded on November 8.

Winemakers Comments

We really love blending Chardonnay from different sites and clones to produce a classic expression of Napa Valley style. Our cooler sites in Carneros, near the San Francisco Bay, create beautiful citrus notes of lemon zest, lime leaf and mandarine with a fresh and vibrant texture. I was also able to work with some incredible "old vines" farther east that were planted in 1978.
