The 2017 Chardonnay Sta. Rita Hills was aged 12 months in used, 500-liter barrels and another six months in tank. It’s youthfully shy on the nose, slowly giving up notions of saline, crushed shell, Greek yogurt and orange blossom with pie crust, Golden delicious apple, white peaches and notes of honey and hazelnut. Light to medium-bodied, it offers great balance of spicy fruit and mineral notions framed by tangy acidity and finishing long and textured. 1,038 cases were made.

– A negociant project, grapes sourced from the best vineyards of the southwestern (coolest) part of the Sta Rita Hills AVA including Rita’s Crown, Bentrock and Wenzlau
– Indigenous fermentation in 500L puncheons (20% new)
– Elevage for months in puncheons followed by 5 months in tank.
– As close to white burgundy in style as can be found in California
