Winemaker Vincent Kalny Notes
All of our Chardonnay is sourced from a single unique vineyard in the heart of Carneros just south of Los Carneros Ave. in Napa. This vineyard yields close to 3 tons of fruit and is hand picked and sorted in the early morning hours.
This Chardonnay is 50% barrel fermented and aged in French Oak (25% new French oak, medium toast). This too is a delicate fruit driven wine with no buttery influence, light acidity for stand alone or with a meal. A wonderful, very soft oak influence that balances well.
Aroma of lightly toasted almonds with hints of pear and sweet apple. Velvety on the mid palate, well rounded and balanced. Finishing on a soft fruit note.
