Mountain Estate Vineyard

Planted in 1999, our Mountain Estate Vineyard, Chardonnay, is rooted in steep, rocky soils at 1,300 feet elevation, and planted with the 45 degree fall line on our only northeast-facing slope. Owing to this particular aspect, these vines receive cooler morning light and minimal exposure to any hot afternoon sun, which has proven ideal for the gradual ripening and maximum maturation of Chardonnay grapes.

,
This wine leads one to dream of fresh nectarines, pears and kiwis that will soon arrive at your local market. The aromas remind me of home; walking past blossoming orange trees one captures the nuance of this Chardonnay. Wet stone minerality mingles with caramel, orange blossom and stone fruit to make this wine one of the most seductive vintages to date. Smooth on the palate, this wine expands to complex flavors of lemon pie, topped with caramel and hazelnuts.
