Winemaker Notes: Chardonnay grapes were harvested in late August from two Dutton Russian River Valley
Vineyards- The Gerboth Ranch and Alpers. After hand-sorting, the grapes were whole cluster pressed to avoid bitter tannins from the skins and grape seeds. The cool, golden green, free-run juice was sent directly to French oak barrels and for fermentation. The
wine was then aged sur-lies in French oak barrels that were a mixture of new and one year-old through neutral oak for 10 months.
This wine is vibrant and very aromatic with scents of lightly baked apple, pie crust, melon, nectarine, clove, oak spice, and tasted sourdough bread with butter. On the palate you will find rich flavors of peach, oak spice, baked apple. It is elegantly structured with citrus-laced acidity and lengthy, toasty oak finish. Ready to drink now.
