The 2020 Vintage is our 4th release of our Chardonnay. This wine is sourced from the Kiser vineyard of the famed San Giacomo growers in the Sonoma Carneros region of Sonoma Coast. The vineyard is an old block of heritage Dijon clones which shows great fruit intensity and purity. This 4th release shows how much this site has to offer with wonderful flavors and aromatics that are seldom reached in other sites. Our Chardonnay has a complex aroma profile showing Orange Blossom, Honey Suckle, Lemon Curd, All spice, Mandarin Orange slices, Cinnamon, and notes of French Vanilla and Crème Brule. The palate has juicy fresh flavors of lemon and orange curd, custard, white fig and mandarin orange complimented with notes of crème cruel and nougat. This wine opens more with air and time and the nose continues to develop..
