Winemaker Zeke Neeley Notes
Our 35th vintage of Napa Valley Chardonnay is classic Trefethen: a
perfectly poised balance of fresh golden apple and spiced pear fruit –
with undertones of lemongrass, ginger and mineral – and toasty, clove-y,
creamy notes from partial barrel fermentation and sur lie and French oak
aging. Rich, yet elegant, juicy, yet beautifully structured for aging, our
2008 Chardonnay captures the essence of Napa Valley and 35 years of
dedicated winemaking at Trefethen. Enjoy!
