The mainstay of our white line, Chardonnay, was planted from two clones in 1991 in our Riverside Vineyard. The location and climate of this particular vineyard produces wonderful balance and structure in our Chardonnay. The wine was created in our traditionally inspired low-intervention winemaking style by whole cluster pressing and barrel fermenting in 60% stainless steel and 40% oak barrels consisting of new, one and two-year old American and French oak.

The 2009 Chardonnay bursts with delightful bright pear and subtle undertones of banana and and apricot. The mouthfeel is lush and large due to a delicate barrel fermentation, while the complex, elegant nose is followed by a structured and soft palate perfect for pairing on any occasion.
