*The vintage is from a single vineyard (Arroyo Loma) in Monterey county grown by our grower partner for over 20 years, Steve McIntyre.
*The vineyard is sustainable and farmed organically, but not certified.
*We love the acidity from this cool climate wine. You will taste more of a citrus, apple, pear & mineral profile vs a warmer climate chard that has tropical flavors of fig, banana and mango.
*100% barrel fermented and stirred 3x a week which amplified the creamy texture and reduced diacetyl (buttered popcorn notes) on the palate. Creamy = good, butter = not so good!
*This 100% chardonnay wine enjoyed Sur lies aging for 9 months in second use French oak which integrated the acidity and fruit with the generous satin textured midpalate.
*This barrel fermented, full malo-lactic Chardonnay has a shiny golden tone and expresses beautiful lemon verbena and tangerine zest top notes followed by rich Tahitian vanilla and creamy custard notes.
