Premiere Vintage 2009
Mother Nature was kind in 2009! Here on the North Coast, we had cool, mild weather, which caused grape ripening to develop slowly and evenly. This resulted in above average fruit quality and full, opulent flavors.
Tasting Notes
"For the premier release of our Chardonnay, I chose to present the varietal in a chic and elegant manner. By fermenting in stainless steel, I was able to preserve delicate fruit characteristics and avoid any overbearing flavors that an oak barrel might impart. Purpose-built to enhance the dining experience, this wine pairs exceptionally well with a wide variety of light fish and shellfish dishes."
Our debut Chardonnay glistens in the glass and greets the nose with the perfume of apple blossom and pear. On the palate, ripe flavors of white peach, Gravenstein apple and Meyer lemon glide seamlessly like a silk ribbon. A near flinty finish provides balanced acidity and leaves the palate yearning for another sip.
