Palate
The 2019 vintage is beautifully balance with brilliant fruit up front and a clean finish.
Growing Conditions
Our 2019 harvest got underway about two weeks later than normal, due to the season's cool, wet spring. July and August heat helped to accelerate vine development, and we were fortunate that the fall months allowed for extended hang tie to bring the sugar content into balance with acidity levels.
Harvest
The 2019 crops were excellent, with yields about average and the flavors very promising.
Bottling
March 17 & March 19, 2020. Stelvin closure.
Limited quantity in Library. Club membership required for access.
Winemaking
Our winemakers chose not to expose this Chardonnay to any oak treatment in order to let the natural fruit character of the Chardonnay grape shine.
Aging
This wine was made from our Home North Chardonnay block, fermented until dry in stainless steel tanks.
Food Pairing
