2007 Chardonnay
The nose emits aromas of pear, lemon rind, and brioche. The taste echoes the lovely nose and has a viscous mouth-feel due to the battonage (stirred sur-lees) process. The long finish has aftertastes of peach, pear, lemon and a hint of toast. A perfect accompaniment with dried fruit, cheese, crab, or lobster.

Our first vintage of Chardonnay dates way back to 1983 from vines planted on our estate that were then just three years old; subsequently, more were added in 1990 when we T-budded a few rows over from Cabernet Sauvignon. The Chardonnay on the estate is planted with 7x12 bilateral cordon and dry farmed. Chardonnay now totals 2.9 acres of the 14.8 acres planted on our estate. Today, we enhance our Oakville estate with a small amount of fruit sourced from The Garvey Vineyard in St. Helena, located on East Zinfandel Lane.
