Harvest Note
2015 was a fantastic year. Everything, beginning with Bud Break, started early, and with a solid Spring and Summer, most grapes were close to perfect condition for picking. Harvest started on September 8th and ended on the 13th. Overall, the wines of 2015 are wonderful, with bright colors across the board with balance and harmony on the nose and palate.
Tasting Note
White fleshed fruit and light hazelnuts aromas pop at first followed by subtle flavors of white pepper, fruit and wood. The finish is long and elegant.

About the Grape
Chardonnay
Though it has a distinctive profile, Chardonnay reflects other factors such as soil composition and vinification technique. Chardonnay is a reliable, hardy and prolific vine whose only real vulnerabilities are frost and uneven development of fruit.
