This wine came from a very hot vintage and has roughly 90% Estate grown Chardonnay, and 10% non-estate fruit from Grace Hill Vineyard in Junction City. The two sites complement each other in fruit style, acid and tannin structure. The fruit was pressed whole cluster straight into tank and finished its Primary Fermentation there, then spent 14 months in barrel, finishing a full MaloLactic Fermentation and aging until we bottled in June 2020.
