Vintage

2024 was a vintage of contrasts, defined by generous winter rains and an extended stretch of summer heat. The early rains fortified the vines, fostering lush canopies that protected the fruit through intense sunshine. The vintage embodies a beautiful balance of power and poise, revealing the dynamic character of the grape.

Winemaker Notes

Pacific Ocean air drifts through the vineyards in the Russian River Valley, imparting elegant mineral notes on our Reserve Chardonnay. The golden-freckled fruit is harvested at full ripeness and fermented with native yeast delivering richness and depth, all while crackling with acidity. Each barrel is hand-selected to showcase the finest fruit of the vintage.
