100% Chardonnay mostly from our estate contract with the Simone Oak Knoll vineyard along with some fruit form an Oakville vineyard. Some small quantities come from own CE2V vineyard and another long tem vineyard in the Carneros region.
Barrel fermented and aged on the lees for 9 months. New specially made French Oak made up about 50% of the barrels used. The balance was mostly one-year-old barrels. This wine is
not inoculated for malolactic fermentation and thus it retains its natural acidity.
More Meursault in style with pineapple, honeysuckle and mineral notes. Crisp, fresh and bright, this wine contains citrus and green apple flavors that come to the front with mineral and subtle oak notes. This medium-full bodied wine is rich with excellent acid balance and firm texture.
