2021 Chalk Hill Chardonnay
In Stock
Winemaking Notes
Crème brûlée, golden apple and piecrust aromas mix with layers of creamy oak. Flavors of poached pear and vanilla wafer overlie a rich, silky smooth texture with mineral-laced acidity, finishing with creamy oak and toasted hazelnut.
Production Notes
The 2021 vintage was mild and dry. Seasonable weather made for pleasant spring
and summer days. Due to the ideal ripening conditions, we predicted an early harvest. But Mother
Nature had other plans and as we checked berry sugars in the late summer the blocks seemed to need a
little more time to ripen than predicted. As the vines developed full flavor, we harvested each
block separately in the early morning hours from August 21st through September 13th.
