Tasting notes
Organically farmed old-vine Wente clone from the heart of the Russian River Valley, hand harvested late at night and whole-cluster pressed. The depth of this old-vine Chardonnay shows immediately on the nose, with white peach and Manuka honey. Fresh and elegant at first sip, broadening into a structured mid-palate of baked apple and nougat, then a seamless finish. 150 cases.
Pairs with
Roast chicken, crab, brown butter squash
