The Estates Tier highlights wines sourced from a collection of vineyards in select appellations within the Napa Valley, deemed by our winemakers to be among the very best.
The fruit for our 2022 Carneros Chardonnay came from two spectacular sites on the Napa side of Carneros AVA, one of which offers bright acidity and minerality, and the other a rich stone fruit density.
The 2022 vintage was mild, dry, and very pleasant through August. Temperatures surged for a week in August. Our grape growing and winemaking teams worked nonstop to keep the vines healthy and happy until temperatures cooled. In spite of a few hot bumps in the road, this year’s wines are shaping up to be gorgeous indeed. The fruit for this Chardonnay was hand harvested between September 6 and 8. The wine underwent malolactic fermentation, during which each lot was evaluated individually and its fermentation stopped at optimal texture. The wine aged sur lies for eight months in French oak to add a subtle, toasty character.
