2006 Chardonnay Barcaglia Lane Russian River Valley

2006 Chardonnay Barcaglia Lane
Russian River Valley

Our Barcaglia Lane Chardonnay is sourced from a single rolling vineyard in the Russian River Valley. Developed for us by the Dutton Family in 1998, the site consists of 3 sloping blocks planted to three different clones - 15, Dijon 95, and Old Wente - which yield increasingly distinctive and complex fruit characters. Tangerine, citrus and sandalwood spice aromas are overlaid with a hint of honey. The wine is anchored in fragrant citrus fruits and framed nicely with toasty oak and acidity that brings great balance, integration and length to the palate. 400 cases produced.
