Viticulture

Our Chardonnay comes from our certified sustainable, estate vineyards in the cooler winegrowing regions of Monterey County where brisk wind and foggy conditions produce wines of great character, texture and structure. Planted on well-draining bluffs, benches and hillsides, our vineyards offer ideal conditions for Chardonnay and other cool-climate varieties.

Vinification

The grapes were harvested in the early morning hours based on brix, acidity, pH and flavor. In the winery the fruit was sorted, crushed and cold fermented in small lots. The wine was aged in stainless steel tanks (70%) and new French oak barrels (30%) to accentuate freshness, varietal character and terroir.
